3 Questions
What is the goal of CPU scheduling?
To minimize the average waiting time for processes
When there are multiple tasks that need to be executed, which task will be executed first?
The task with the lowest priority
What type of scheduling algorithm is an example of future-knowledge scheduling?
Preemptive scheduling
Study Notes
-
CPU scheduling is the process of assigning tasks to the CPU cores so that the tasks can be executed in the most efficient way possible.
-
CPU scheduling can be done using a variety of algorithms, with future-knowledge scheduling being one example.
-
The goal of CPU scheduling is to minimize the average waiting time for processes, which can be achieved by scheduling tasks with the lowest possible priority.
-
When there are multiple tasks that need to be executed, the task with the lowest priority will be executed first.
-
When the system is idle, the idle task will be scheduled instead of any processes.
Test your knowledge on CPU scheduling and algorithms used to assign tasks to CPU cores efficiently. Learn about future-knowledge scheduling and the goal of minimizing average waiting time for processes by prioritizing tasks. Understand how the CPU schedules tasks, including the idle task when the system is idle.
