Questions and Answers

What is the purpose of time quantum in round robin CPU scheduling?

To prioritize processes based on their arrival time
To allocate more time to processes with longer burst times
To determine the order in which processes are executed
To limit the time each process can run on the CPU before being returned to the ready queue (correct)

Where does the ready queue lie in round robin CPU scheduling?

In the CPU cache
In the RAM (correct)
In the hard disk
In the CPU registers

What happens to a process after it has used up its time quantum in round robin scheduling?

It gets terminated immediately
It gets priority for the next time quantum
It goes back to the ready queue (correct)
It continues running until it completes its burst time
