Chapter6

The document discusses different types of CPU scheduling algorithms including preemptive vs. non-preemptive scheduling, first-come first-served (FCFS), shortest job first (SJF), priority scheduling, and round robin (RR) scheduling. It provides examples of how to calculate metrics like waiting time, turnaround time, and response time for each algorithm. It also covers topics like multi-level queues, multiprocessor scheduling, and how preemptive scheduling relates to operating system design.
