  2. Round-robin scheduling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Round-robin_scheduling

    A Round Robin preemptive scheduling example with quantum=3. Round-robin (RR) is one of the algorithms employed by process and network schedulers in computing. [1] [2] As the term is generally used, time slices (also known as time quanta) [3] are assigned to each process in equal portions and in circular order, handling all processes without priority (also known as cyclic executive).

  3. Earliest deadline first scheduling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Earliest_deadline_first...

    Earliest deadline first (EDF) or least time to go is a dynamic priority scheduling algorithm used in real-time operating systems to place processes in a priority queue. Whenever a scheduling event occurs (task finishes, new task released, etc.) the queue will be searched for the process closest to its deadline.

  4. Scheduling (computing) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scheduling_(computing)

    Earliest deadline first (EDF) or least time to go is a dynamic scheduling algorithm used in real-time operating systems to place processes in a priority queue. Whenever a scheduling event occurs (a task finishes, new task is released, etc.), the queue will be searched for the process closest to its deadline, which will be the next to be ...

  5. Rate-monotonic scheduling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rate-monotonic_scheduling

    In computer science, rate-monotonic scheduling (RMS) [1] is a priority assignment algorithm used in real-time operating systems (RTOS) with a static-priority scheduling class. [2] The static priorities are assigned according to the cycle duration of the job, so a shorter cycle duration results in a higher job priority.

  6. FIFO (computing and electronics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FIFO_(computing_and...

    Representation of a FIFO queue. In computing and in systems theory, first in, first out (the first in is the first out), acronymized as FIFO, is a method for organizing the manipulation of a data structure (often, specifically a data buffer) where the oldest (first) entry, or "head" of the queue, is processed first.

  7. Out-of-order execution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Out-of-order_execution

    The first machine to use out-of-order execution was the CDC 6600 (1964), designed by James E. Thornton, which uses a scoreboard to avoid conflicts. It permits an instruction to execute if its source operand (read) registers aren't to be written to by any unexecuted earlier instruction (true dependency) and the destination (write) register not be a register used by any unexecuted earlier ...

  8. Time of flight - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time_of_flight

    Time of flight (ToF) is the measurement of the time taken by an object, particle or wave (be it acoustic, electromagnetic, etc.) to travel a distance through a medium. This information can then be used to measure velocity or path length, or as a way to learn about the particle or medium's properties (such as composition or flow rate).

  9. Shortest remaining time - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shortest_remaining_time

    Shortest remaining time being executed. Shortest remaining time, also known as shortest remaining time first (SRTF), is a scheduling method that is a preemptive version of shortest job next scheduling. In this scheduling algorithm, the process with the smallest amount of time remaining until completion is selected to execute. Since the ...
