Results for tag: "CPU Scheduling"

CPU Scheduling is a process within Operating Systems that determines which processes should be allocated to the CPU and in what order. It is an important part of the OS as it ensures that all processes are given a fair share of the CPU's resources. CPU Scheduling algorithms are used to determine which processes should be given priority and how long they should be allowed to run. These algorithms can be either preemptive or non-preemptive, depending on the needs of the system. Preemptive algorithms allow the OS to interrupt a process if a higher priority process needs to be run. Non-preemptive algorithms allow processes to run until they are finished or until they are blocked by another process. The CPU Scheduling market is highly competitive, with many companies offering their own solutions. Some of the major players in the market include Microsoft, Apple, IBM, Oracle, and Google.
