What is Process Scheduling?
Process scheduling is the activity of the process manager that handles the removal of the running process from the CPU and the selection of another process based on a particular strategy.
Process scheduling is an essential part of a Multiprogramming operating system. Such operating systems allow more than one process to be loaded into the executable memory at a time and the loaded process shares the CPU using time multiplexing.
Process Schedulers in Operating System
In computing, a process is the instance of a computer program that is being executed by one or many threads. Scheduling is important in many different computer environments. One of the most important areas of scheduling is which programs will work on the CPU. This task is handled by the Operating System (OS) of the computer and there are many different ways in which we can choose to configure programs.
