In this note,the norm attainability of elementary operators and generalized derivations is established.We prove that if an elementary operator and a generalized derivation defined on B(H)are norm-attinable,then the restrictions on the unitary group of B(H)of the elementary operator and the generalized derivation are also norm-attainable,respectively,where B(H)denotes the set of all bounded linear op- erators on a Hilbert space H.
