Question

Round Robin scheduling algorithm falls under the category of--

• A. Preemptive scheduling
• B. Non-preemptive scheduling
• C. Sometimes preemptive sometimes non-preemptive
• D. None of these

Answer 1

The correct option is A Preemptive scheduling

Round Robin scheduling algorithm falls under the category of preemptive scheduling.

Round Robin scheduling:-Round-robin (RR) is one of the algorithms employed by process and network schedulers in computing. As the time slices are assigned to each process in equal portions and in circular order, handling all processes without priority.

Preemptive scheduling:-A scheduling discipline is preemptive if, once a process has been given the CPU can take away. The strategy of allowing processes that are logically run able to be temporarily suspended is called Preemptive Scheduling.
