Windows NT processor scheduling refers to the process by which Windows NT determines which job (task) should be run on the computer processor at which time. Without scheduling, the processor would give attention to jobs based on when they arrived in the queue, which is usually not optimal.
The scheduler is an operating system module that selects the next jobs to be admitted into the system and the next process to run. Operating systems may feature up to three distinct scheduler types: a long-term scheduler (also known as an admission scheduler or high-level scheduler), a mid-term or medium-term scheduler, and a short-term scheduler.
In computer science, The System Contention Scope [1] is one of two thread-scheduling schemes used in operating systems.This scheme is used by the kernel to decide which kernel-level thread to schedule onto a CPU, wherein all threads (as opposed to only user-level threads, as in the Process Contention Scope scheme) in the system compete for the CPU.

This is a sub-category of Category:Scheduling algorithms, focusing on heuristic algorithms for scheduling tasks (jobs) to processors (machines). For optimization problems related to scheduling, see Category:Optimal scheduling.
To change this template's initial visibility, the |state= parameter may be used: {{Processor scheduling | state = collapsed}} will show the template collapsed, i.e. hidden apart from its title bar. {{Processor scheduling | state = expanded}} will show the template expanded, i.e. fully visible.
Dynamic priority scheduling is a type of scheduling algorithm in which the priorities are calculated during the execution of the system. The goal of dynamic priority scheduling is to adapt to dynamically changing progress and to form an optimal configuration in a self-sustained manner.
In computer science, a multilevel feedback queue is a scheduling algorithm. Scheduling algorithms are designed to have some process running at all times to keep the central processing unit (CPU) busy. [1] The multilevel feedback queue extends standard algorithms with the following design requirements:
