CPU scheduling algorithms
CPU Scheduling Algorithms: Introduction: CPU scheduling algorithms decide which process gets to use the CPU and when. They are essential for multitasking and efficient resource management in operating systems. Types: First-Come, First-Served (FCFS) Processes are executed in the order they arrive. Simple but can cause long waiting times for short tasks. Shortest Job First (SJF) Executes the process with the shortest burst time next. Efficient but can lead to starvation of longer tasks. Round Robin (RR) Each process gets a fixed time slice in rotation. Good for time-sharing systems and fair distribution. Priority Scheduling Processes are assigned priorities. Higher priority processes run first. Can cause starvation of low-priority tasks. Multilevel Queue Scheduling Processes are divided into multiple queues based on type or priority. Each queue has its own scheduling algorithm. Multilevel Feedback Queue Similar to multilevel queue but allows processes to move between queues based on beh...
