Explain
12.
Consider the following set of
processes, with the length of the cpu burst time given in milliseconds:
Process burst time priority
P1 10 3
P2 1 1
P3 2 3
P4 1 4
P5 5 2
The processes are assumed to have
arrived in the order P1,P2,P3,P4,P5, all at time 0. Draw four Gantt charts
illustrating the execution of these processes using FCFS, SJF, a
non-pre-emptive priority (a smaller priority number implies a higher priority),
and RR (quantum=1) scheduling. Which of the above schedules in the minimal
average waiting time (over all processes) /
