CPU scheduling big area of research in early ‘70s
Many implicit assumptions for CPU scheduling:
One program per user
One thread per program
Programs are independent
These are unrealistic but simplify the problem
Does “fair” mean fairness among users or programs?
If I run one compilation job and you run five, do you get five times as much CPU?
Often times, yes!
Goal: dole out CPU time to optimize some desired parameters of the system.
Comparative analysis of the essential CPU scheduling algorithmsjournalBEEI
CPU scheduling algorithms have a significant function in multiprogramming operating systems. When the CPU scheduling is effective a high rate of computation could be done correctly and also the system will maintain in a stable state. As well as, CPU scheduling algorithms are the main service in the operating systems that fulfill the maximum utilization of the CPU. This paper aims to compare the characteristics of the CPU scheduling algorithms towards which one is the best algorithm for gaining a higher CPU utilization. The comparison has been done between ten scheduling algorithms with presenting different parameters, such as performance, algorithm’s complexity, algorithm’s problem, average waiting times, algorithm’s advantages-disadvantages, allocation way, etc. The main purpose of the article is to analyze the CPU scheduler in such a way that suits the scheduling goals. However, knowing the algorithm type which is most suitable for a particular situation by showing its full properties.

CPU Scheduling is a process of determining which process will own CPU for execution while another process is on hold. The main task of CPU scheduling is to make sure that whenever the CPU remains idle, the OS at least select one of the processes available in the ready queue for execution.

Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as “predictable inference”.
All of this illustrated with link prediction over knowledge graphs, but the argument is general.

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.

CHAPTER
CPU Scheduling
Practice Exercises
A CPU scheduling algorithm determines an order for the execution of its
5.1
scheduled processes. Given n processes to be scheduled on one proces-
sor, how many possible different schedules are there? Give a formula in
terms of n.
Answer: n! (n factorial = n × n – 1 × n – 2 × ... × 2 × 1).
Define the difference between preemptive and nonpreemptive schedul-
5.2
ing.
Answer: Preemptive scheduling allows a process to be interrupted
in the midst of its execution, taking the CPU away and allocating it
to another process. Nonpreemptive scheduling ensures that a process
relinquishes control of the CPU only when it finishes with its current
CPU burst.
Suppose that the following processes arrive for execution at the times
5.3
indicated. Each process will run the listed amount of time. In answering
the questions, use nonpreemptive scheduling and base all decisions on
the information you have at the time the decision must be made.
Process Arrival Time Burst Time
P1 0.0 8
P2 0.4 4
P3 1.0 1
a. What is the average turnaround time for these processes with the
FCFS scheduling algorithm?
13
2. Chapter 5 CPU Scheduling
14
b. What is the average turnaround time for these processes with the
SJF scheduling algorithm?
c. The SJF algorithm is supposed to improve performance, but notice
that we chose to run process P1 at time 0 because we did not know
that two shorter processes would arrive soon. Compute what the
average turnaround time will be if the CPU is left idle for the first 1
unit and then SJF scheduling is used. Remember that processes P1
and P2 are waiting during this idle time, so their waiting time may
increase. This algorithm could be known as future-knowledge
scheduling.
Answer:
a. 10.53
b. 9.53
c. 6.86
Remember that turnaround time is finishing time minus arrival time, so
you have to subtract the arrival times to compute the turnaround times.
FCFS is 11 if you forget to subtract arrival time.
What advantage is there in having different time-quantum sizes on dif-
5.4
ferent levels of a multilevel queueing system?
Answer: Processes that need more frequent servicing, for instance,
interactive processes such as editors, can be in a queue with a small time
quantum. Processes with no need for frequent servicing can be in a queue
with a larger quantum, requiring fewer context switches to complete the
processing, and thus making more efficient use of the computer.
Many CPU-scheduling algorithms are parameterized. For example, the
5.5
RR algorithm requires a parameter to indicate the time slice. Multilevel
feedback queues require parameters to define the number of queues,
the scheduling algorithms for each queue, the criteria used to move
processes between queues, and so on.
These algorithms are thus really sets of algorithms (for example, the
set of RR algorithms for all time slices, and so on). One set of algorithms
may include another (for example, the FCFS algorithm is the RR algorithm
with an infinite time quantum). What (if any) relation holds between the
following pairs of sets of algorithms?
a. Priority and SJF
b. Multilevel feedback queues and FCFS
c. Priority and FCFS
d. RR and SJF
Answer:
a. The shortest job has the highest priority.
b. The lowest level of MLFQ is FCFS.
3. Practice Exercises 15
c. FCFS gives the highest priority to the job having been in existence
the longest.
d. None.
Suppose that a scheduling algorithm (at the level of short-term CPU
5.6
scheduling) favors those processes that have used the least processor
time in the recent past. Why will this algorithm favor I/O-bound pro-
grams and yet not permanently starve CPU-bound programs?
Answer: It will favor the I/O-bound programs because of the relatively
short CPU burst request by them; however, the CPU-bound programs
will not starve because the I/O-bound programs will relinquish the CPU
relatively often to do their I/O.
Distinguish between PCS and SCS scheduling.
5.7
Answer: PCS scheduling is done local to the process. It is how the
thread library schedules threads onto available LWPs. SCS scheduling is
the situation where the operating system schedules kernel threads. On
systems using either many-to-one or many-to-many, the two scheduling
models are fundamentally different. On systems using one-to-one, PCS
and SCS are the same.
Assume an operating system maps user-level threads to the kernel using
5.8
the many-to-many model where the mapping is done through the use
of LWPs. Furthermore, the system allows program developers to create
real-time threads. Is it necessary to bind a real-time thread to an LWP?
Answer: Yes, otherwise a user thread may have to compete for an
available LWP prior to being actually scheduled. By binding the user
thread to an LWP, there is no latency while waiting for an available LWP;
the real-time user thread can be scheduled immediately.
