CHAPTER 2
ABSTRACT

Developing CPU scheduling algorithms and understanding their impact in


practice can be difficult and time consuming due to the need to modify and test
operating system kernel code and measure the resulting performance on a consistent
workload of real applications. As processor is the important resource, CPU scheduling
becomes very important in accomplishing the operating system (OS) design goals.
The intention should be allowed as many as possible running processes at all time in
order to make best use of CPU.
This paper presents a state diagram that depicts the
comparative study of various scheduling algorithms for a single CPU and shows
which algorithm is best for the particular situation. Using this representation, it
becomes much easier to understand what is going on inside the system and why a
different set of processes is a candidate for the allocation of the CPU at different time.
The objective of the study is to analyze the high efficient CPU scheduler on design of
the high quality scheduling algorithms which suits the scheduling goals.

INTRODUCTION

We will go through some basic information regarding CPU scheduling and


some keywords that are frequently used in CPU scheduling algorithms so that we can
understand the different algorithms better.

When the CPU is free, and its resources are available, then the
CPU must select a process from the ready queue and allocate resources for its
execution. Selection is performed with the help of CPU schedulers where the CPU
scheduler selects a process from the list of available processes (processes which are
present in the ready queue).

TYPES OF CPU SCHEDULING

Here are two kinds of Scheduling methods:

Preemptive Scheduling:
In Preemptive Scheduling, the tasks are mostly assigned with their priorities.
Sometimes it is important to run a task with a higher priority before another lower
priority task, even if the lower priority task is still running. The lower priority task
holds for some time and resumes when the higher priority task finishes its execution.

Non Preemptive Scheduling:


In this type of scheduling method, the CPU has been allocated to a specific process.
The process that keeps the CPU busy will release the CPU either by switching context
or terminating. It is the only method that can be used for various hardware platforms.
That’s because it doesn’t need special hardware (for example, a timer) like preemptive
scheduling.

CHAPTER 5
IMPORTANT CPU SCHEDULING TERMINOLOGIES

 Burst Time/Execution Time: It is a time required by the process to complete


execution. It is also called running time.

 Arrival Time: when a process enters in a ready state

 Finish Time: when process complete and exit from a system

 Multiprogramming: A number of programs which can be present in memory


at the same time.

 Jobs: It is a type of program without any kind of user interaction.

 User: It is a kind of program having user interaction.

 Process: It is the reference that is used for both job and user.

 CPU/IO burst cycle: Characterizes process execution, which alternates


between CPU and I/O activity. CPU times are usually shorter than the time of
I/O.

CHAPTER 6
CPU SCHEDULING CRITERIA

A CPU scheduling algorithm tries to maximize and minimize the following:

Maximize:
CPU utilization: CPU utilization is the main task in which the operating system
needs to make sure that CPU remains as busy as possible. It can range from 0 to 100
percent. However, for the RTOS, it can be range from 40 percent for low-level and 90
percent for the high-level system.

Throughput: The number of processes that finish their execution per unit time is
known Throughput. So, when the CPU is busy executing the process, at that time,
work is being done, and the work completed per unit time is called Throughput.

Minimize:
Waiting time: Waiting time is an amount that specific process needs to wait in the
ready queue.

Response time: It is an amount to time in which the request was submitted until the
first response is produced.

Turnaround Time: Turnaround time is an amount of time to execute a specific


process. It is the calculation of the total time spent waiting to get into the memory,
waiting in the queue and, executing on the CPU. The period between the time of
process submission to the completion time is the turnaround time.

CHAPTER 6
TYPES OF CPU SCHEDULING ALGORITHM

There are mainly six types of process scheduling algorithms

1. First Come First Serve (FCFS)


2. Shortest-Job-First (SJF) Scheduling
3. Shortest Remaining Time
4. Priority Scheduling
5. Round Robin Scheduling
6. Multilevel Queue Scheduling

1.First Come First Serve


First Come First Serve is the full form of FCFS. It is the easiest and most
simple CPU scheduling algorithm. In this type of algorithm, the process which
requests the CPU gets the CPU allocation first. This scheduling method can be
managed with a FIFO queue.

As the process enters the ready queue, its PCB (Process Control Block) is
linked with the tail of the queue. So, when CPU becomes free, it should be assigned to
the process at the beginning of the queue.

Characteristics of FCFS method:


 It offers non-preemptive and pre-emptive scheduling algorithm.
 Jobs are always executed on a first-come, first-serve basis
 It is easy to implement and use.
 However, this method is poor in performance, and the general wait time is quite
high.

2.Shortest Job First


SJF is a full form of (Shortest job first) is a scheduling algorithm in which the
process with the shortest execution time should be selected for execution next. This
scheduling method can be preemptive or non-preemptive. It significantly reduces the
average waiting time for other processes awaiting execution.

Characteristics of SJF Scheduling


 It is associated with each job as a unit of time to complete.
 In this method, when the CPU is available, the next process or job with the
shortest completion time will be executed first.
 It is Implemented with non-preemptive policy.
 This algorithm method is useful for batch-type processing, where waiting for
jobs to complete is not critical.
 It improves job output by offering shorter jobs, which should be executed first,
which mostly have a shorter turnaround time.

3.Shortest Remaining Time


The full form of SRT is Shortest remaining time. It is also known as SJF preemptive
scheduling. In this method, the process will be allocated to the task, which is closest to
its completion. This method prevents a newer ready state process from holding the
completion of an older process.

Characteristics of SRT scheduling method:


 This method is mostly applied in batch environments where short jobs are
required to be given preference.
 This is not an ideal method to implement it in a shared system where the
required CPU time is unknown.
 Associate with each process as the length of its next CPU burst. So that
operating system uses these lengths, which helps to schedule the process with
the shortest possible time.

4.Priority Based Scheduling


Priority scheduling is a method of scheduling processes based on priority. In this
method, the scheduler selects the tasks to work as per the priority.

Priority scheduling also helps OS to involve priority assignments. The processes with
higher priority should be carried out first, whereas jobs with equal priorities are
carried out on a round-robin or FCFS basis. Priority can be decided based on memory
requirements, time requirements, etc.

5.Round-Robin Scheduling
Round robin is the oldest, simplest scheduling algorithm. The name of this algorithm
comes from the round-robin principle, where each person gets an equal share of
something in turn. It is mostly used for scheduling algorithms in multitasking. This
algorithm method helps for starvation free execution of processes.

Characteristics of Round-Robin Scheduling


 Round robin is a hybrid model which is clock-driven
 Time slice should be minimum, which is assigned for a specific task to be
processed. However, it may vary for different processes.
 It is a real time system which responds to the event within a specific time limit.

6.Multiple-Level Queues Scheduling


This algorithm separates the ready queue into various separate queues. In this method,
processes are assigned to a queue based on a specific property of the process, like the
process priority, size of the memory, etc.

However, this is not an independent scheduling OS algorithm as it needs to use other


types of algorithms in order to schedule the jobs.

Characteristic of Multiple-Level Queues Scheduling:


 Multiple queues should be maintained for processes with some characteristics.
 Every queue may have its separate scheduling algorithms.
 Priorities are given for each queue.
