10 Questions
What is the purpose of time quantum in round robin CPU scheduling?
To limit the time each process can run on the CPU before being returned to the ready queue
Where does the ready queue lie in round robin CPU scheduling?
In the RAM
What happens to a process after it has used up its time quantum in round robin scheduling?
It goes back to the ready queue
How does the CPU handle a process in round robin scheduling when the time quantum is reached?
It interrupts the process and moves it back to the ready queue
In round robin scheduling, what does the CPU's use of time quantum mean?
It limits the execution time of each process before moving it back to the ready queue
What is the basis of multiprogramming?
CPU scheduling
What are the observed properties of a process that the success of CPU scheduling depends upon?
Process execution consisting of CPU execution and IO wait, and the alternation between these two states
What is a CPU burst controlled by?
CPU
What is a CPU scheduler responsible for?
Selecting one of the processes when the CPU becomes idle
What does process execution begin with?
CPU burst
