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 ...
Shortest job next being executed. Shortest job next (SJN), also known as shortest job first (SJF) or shortest process next (SPN), is a scheduling policy that selects for execution the waiting process with the smallest execution time. [1] SJN is a non-preemptive algorithm. Shortest remaining time is a preemptive variant of SJN.
Shortest seek first (or shortest seek time first) is a secondary storage scheduling algorithm to determine the motion of the disk read-and-write head in servicing read and write requests. Description [ edit ]
Random scheduling (RSS) First In, First Out , also known as First Come First Served (FCFS) Last In, First Out ; Shortest seek first, also known as Shortest Seek / Service Time First (SSTF) Elevator algorithm, also known as SCAN (including its variants, C-SCAN, LOOK, and C-LOOK) N-Step-SCAN SCAN of N records at a time
The SPT algorithm (Shortest Processing Time First), sorts the jobs by their length, shortest first, and then assigns them to the processor with the earliest end time so far. It runs in time O( n log n ), and minimizes the average completion time on identical machines, [ 1 ] P|| ∑ C i {\displaystyle \sum C_{i}} .
Shortest job first The next job to be served is the one with the smallest size. [24] Preemptive shortest job first The next job to be served is the one with the smallest original size. [25] Shortest remaining processing time The next job to serve is the one with the smallest remaining processing requirement. [26] Service facility
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 ...
Highest response ratio next (HRRN) scheduling is a non-preemptive discipline. It was developed by Brinch Hansen as modification of shortest job next or shortest job first (SJN or SJF) to mitigate the problem of process starvation. In HRRN, the next job is not that with the shortest estimated run time, but that with the highest response ratio ...
