Multilevel Feedback Queue Scheduling and Multiple-Processor Scheduling

Multilevel Feedback Queue Scheduling Multilevel feedback queue scheduling allows a process to move between queues. The idea is to separate processes with different CPU-burst characteristics. If a process uses too much CPU time, it will be moved to a lower-priority queue. This scheme leaves I/O-bound...

Round Robin Scheduling and Multilevel Queue Scheduling

Round Robin Scheduling In round robin scheduling processes are dispatched FIFO but are given a limited amount of CPU time called a time-slice or a quantum. If a process does not complete before its CPU time expires, the CPU is preempted and given to the next waiting process. The preempted process is...
