CPU Scheduling
CPU Scheduling:-
1) It is the basis of multi-programming operating system.
2) By switching the CPU among processes, the operating system can make the computer more productive.
3) CPU Scheduling depends on CPU execution and I/O wait.
CPU scheduling is a process which allows one process to use the CPU while the execution of another process is on hold (in waiting state) due to unavailability of any resource like I/O etc, thereby making full use of CPU. The aim of CPU scheduling is to make the system efficient, fast and fair.
The CPU scheduler is an important component of the operating system. Processes must be properly scheduled, or else the system will make inefficient use of its resources.
