Scheduling

Questão	Responda
What is a scheduler?	A program that manages the amount of time different processes have in the CPU
How does a scheduler work?	It uses a scheduling algorithm to determine how to share processor time
What is Round robin scheduling?	Each process is given a fixed amount of time. If it hasn't finished by the end of that time period, it goes to the back of the queue so the next process in the line
What is first come first served scheduling?	It's just like queuing in a shop. The first process that arrives is dealt with by the CPU and then the next process and so on.
What is shortest job first scheduling?	It picks the job that will take the shortest time and runs it until it finishes.
What is shortest remaining time scheduling?	The scheduler estimates how long each process will take. It then picks the one that will take the least amount of time, however, if a new job is added with a shorter remaining time the scheduler will switch to that one.
What are multi-level feedback queues?	It uses multiple queues and each queue has a different priority. The algorithm can move jobs between these queues depending on the jobs' behaviour.
