CPU scheduling is the basis of multiprogrammed operating systems. By switching the CPU among processes, the operating system can make the computer more productive. Different CPU-scheduling algorithms have different properties, and the choice of a particular algorithm may favor one class over another.
Write a 5- to 6-page paper (1250 to 1650 words), documented in APA Style, on a subject related to multiprocessor scheduling. Include sections for each of the following:
Approaches to multiprocessor scheduling
Processor affinity (PA), including:
What it is
Types of PA—soft and hard
Why it’s good to have PA
Load balancing (LB), including:
What it is
General approaches—push migration, pull migration
Relationship to processor affinity
Multicore processing, including:
What it is
How it’s related to memory stall
Ways to multithread a processing core—course-grained and fine-grained
Textbook Readings
Read Chapters 5, 6, and 7 in Silberschatz, Galvin, and Gagne, Operating System Concepts.
