Study Notes

  • The text discusses two scheduling algorithms: FCFS and SJF.
  • FCFS stands for First-Come, First-Served, while SJF stands for Shortest Job First.
  • SJF prioritizes processes with the shortest burst time.
  • The formula for calculating the average waiting time for a process is (completion time - arrival time - burst time).
  • The formula for calculating the average waiting time for all processes is the sum of individual waiting times divided by the number of processes.
  • The exponential averaging technique is used to calculate the predicted burst time for a process.
  • The parameter alpha (𝛼) determines the weight given to the historical data versus the current data.
  • A value of 𝛼 = 0 ignores the current data, while a value of 𝛼 = 1 ignores the historical data.
  • A value of 𝛼 = 0.5 is commonly used to balance both historical and current data.
  • An example is provided to demonstrate how FCFS and SJF algorithms can be used to calculate the average waiting time for a set of processes.
  • Prioritization of processes in different queues is important in process scheduling.
  • Queue 1 has higher priority than Queue 2, meaning processes in Queue 2 cannot execute while processes in Queue 1 exist.
  • The same applies to Queue 3, which cannot execute while processes exist in Queues 1 or 2.
  • Another approach is to assign time slices to each queue, allowing them to access a certain percentage of the CPU.
  • For example, 60ms can be assigned to Queue 1, 30ms to Queue 2, and 10ms to Queue 3.
  • This allows each queue to manage its processes with its preferred algorithm within its assigned time slice.
  • The feedback queueing algorithm adds flexibility by allowing processes to dynamically change queues.
  • This allows a process to move to a higher or lower priority queue based on its current status.
  • The feedback queueing algorithm can improve system performance by reducing process waiting times.
  • Process scheduling is an essential aspect of operating systems.
  • Processes need adaptive resource allocation
  • High CPU usage processes can be moved to lower priority queues
  • Aging technique prevents starvation of low priority processes
  • Figure 5 extends the example from Figure 4 with feedback queues
  • Queue 1 has absolute priority over Queue 2 and 3
  • New processes enter Queue 1
  • Processes with bursts under 5ms return to the end of Queue 1
  • Processes with bursts over 5ms move to the end of Queue 2
  • Processes in Queue 3 can access the CPU only when Queues 1 and 2 are empty
  • Parameters for implementation include number of queues, scheduling algorithm, promotion and degradation methods, and assignment method.
