  2. Scheduling (computing) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scheduling_(computing)

    Earliest deadline first (EDF) or least time to go is a dynamic scheduling algorithm used in real-time operating systems to place processes in a priority queue. Whenever a scheduling event occurs (a task finishes, new task is released, etc.), the queue will be searched for the process closest to its deadline, which will be the next to be ...

  3. Input queue - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Input_queue

    Input queues are mainly used in Operating System Scheduling which is a technique for distributing resources among processes. Input queues not only apply to operating systems (OS), but may also be applied to scheduling inside networking devices. The purpose of scheduling is to ensure resources are being distributed fairly and effectively ...

  4. Multilevel queue - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multilevel_queue

    In a multi-level queue scheduling algorithm, there will be 'n' number of queues, where 'n' is the number of groups the processes are classified into. Each queue will be assigned a priority and will have its own scheduling algorithm like Round-robin scheduling [1]: 194 or FCFS. For the process in a queue to execute, all the queues of priority ...

  6. Multilevel feedback queue - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multilevel_feedback_queue

    In general, a multilevel feedback queue scheduler is defined by the following parameters: [6] The number of queues. The scheduling algorithm for each queue which can be different from FIFO. The method used to determine when to promote a process to a higher priority queue. The method used to determine when to demote a process to a lower-priority ...

  7. Dynamic priority scheduling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dynamic_priority_scheduling

    Dynamic priority scheduling is a type of scheduling algorithm in which the priorities are calculated during the execution of the system. The goal of dynamic priority scheduling is to adapt to dynamically changing progress and to form an optimal configuration in a self-sustained manner.

  8. Round-robin scheduling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Round-robin_scheduling

    Round-robin scheduling can be applied to other scheduling problems, such as data packet scheduling in computer networks. It is an operating system concept. The name of the algorithm comes from the round-robin principle known from other fields, where each person takes an equal share of something in turn.

  9. Completely Fair Scheduler - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Completely_Fair_Scheduler

    CFS is the first implementation of a fair queuing process scheduler widely used in a general-purpose operating system. [ 5 ] The Linux kernel received a patch for CFS in November 2010 for the 2.6.38 kernel that has made the scheduler "fairer" for use on desktops and workstations.
