Questions and Answers

What is the main problem experienced when using Priority Scheduling?

Starvation / Indefinite Blocking

How can the issue of Starvation in Priority Scheduling be resolved?

Aging

What impact does the value of the time quantum (q) have on Round Robin Scheduling?

Largely impacts performance

What happens if the time quantum (q) in Round Robin Scheduling is very large?

What is the difference between Multilevel Queue Scheduling and Multilevel Feedback Queue Scheduling?

<p>In Multilevel Queue Scheduling, processes are permanently assigned to a queue and do not move, while in Multilevel Feedback Queue Scheduling, processes can move between queues based on their behavior.</p> Signup and view all the answers

How does Time slice scheduling work in Multilevel Queue Scheduling?

<p>In Time slice scheduling, each queue is allocated a certain amount of CPU time which it can divide among its processes. For example, 80% CPU time to foreground queue in Round Robin and 20% to background queue in FCFS.</p> Signup and view all the answers

Explain the concept of Fixed priority scheduling in Multilevel Queue Scheduling.

<p>Fixed priority scheduling involves serving all processes from one queue before moving to the next. For example, all foreground processes are served before any background processes.</p> Signup and view all the answers

What is the main difference between Shortest Job First (SJF) Scheduling and Shortest Remaining Time First (SRTF) Scheduling?

<p>SJF is non-preemptive, meaning once a process starts, it runs to completion. SRTF is preemptive, allowing a new process with a shorter burst time to run if it arrives.</p> Signup and view all the answers

How does Priority Scheduling work and what determines the priority of a process?

<p>Priority Scheduling selects the process to work on based on priority. The priority of a process can be determined by factors like deadline, memory requirements, or other criteria.</p> Signup and view all the answers

Explain how Round Robin (RR) Scheduling works and what problem it aims to solve.

<p>Round Robin Scheduling assigns a fixed time unit per process, called a time quantum. It aims to prevent starvation and provide fair allocation of CPU time to all processes.</p> Signup and view all the answers

What is the concept of Highest Response Ratio Next (HRRN) Scheduling and how does it prioritize processes?

<p>HRRN Scheduling calculates the response ratio which is the ratio of (wait time + burst time) / burst time. It selects the process with the highest response ratio to execute next.</p> Signup and view all the answers
