The scheduling policy module implements a “priority-based” scheduling algorithm. While most Linux kernels and their derivatives are non-pre-emptable, have no rescheduling, and are not real-time, ...

Short Term vs. Long Term Scheduling. Most computer operating systems must multi-task. They use a scheduling algorithm that decides which of the many processes can be run at any given time. It puts ...

The Journal of the Operational Research Society, Vol. 49, No. 11 (Nov., 1998), pp. 1130-1145 (16 pages) We have developed a Genetic algorithm (GA) for the optimisation of maintenance overhaul ...

It implements a first-in, first-out scheduling algorithm. When a SCHED_FIFO task starts running, it continues to run until it voluntarily yields the processor, blocks or is preempted by a ...

This paper is concerned with the classical vehicle scheduling problem where a set of vehicles with known capacities are to service a known set of points with deterministic demands at least cost. An ...

The scheduling algorithm must strike a balance between all of these competing needs. Like most modern operating systems, Linux is a multitasking operating system, and therefore, it has a scheduler.
