10 Questions
Which of the following is the main purpose of CPU scheduling in an operating system?
To maximize CPU utilization
How does the scheduling of small processes like P2 and P3 alongside a large process like P1 impact the overall CPU utilization?
It increases CPU utilization by keeping the CPU busy with smaller tasks
Which of the following is a key factor that determines the effectiveness of a CPU scheduling algorithm?
The burst time of processes
Suppose a CPU scheduling algorithm is designed to prioritize processes based on their arrival time. How would this affect the average waiting time of processes compared to an algorithm that schedules processes based on their burst time?
The average waiting time would be higher with the arrival time-based algorithm
Which of the following is a key consideration when designing a CPU scheduling algorithm for an operating system?
The number of processes in main memory
______ is an example of a CPU scheduling algorithm.
CT
The arrival time of Process P3 is _____.
1
The burst time of Process P1 is _____.
50
The average waiting time is calculated by dividing the sum of waiting times by the total number of _____.
processes
Small processes like P1 and P2 didn’t wait due to their short _____ time.
burst
