Which of the following is not a characteristic of Round Robin Scheduling?

Time-sharing

Preemptive

Fairness

Non-deterministic

What is the time slice in Round Robin Scheduling?

The amount of time it takes for the scheduler to switch between processes

The maximum amount of time a process can execute before being preempted

The amount of time a process spends waiting in the ready queue

The amount of time a process spends waiting for I/O

Which of the following is a disadvantage of Round Robin Scheduling?

High CPU utilization

Low response time

Inefficient for processes with I/O operations

Unable to handle priority scheduling

What is the purpose of Round Robin Scheduling?

To maximize CPU utilization

To minimize response time

To ensure fairness among processes

To prioritize processes based on their importance

What is the primary goal of round-robin scheduling?

What is the primary goal of round-robin scheduling

To maximize throughput

To minimize waiting time

To minimize response time

In round-robin scheduling, each process is given a fixed time slice called a:

Time quantum

Burst time

Priority time

Context switch time

Which scheduling algorithm is commonly used in operating systems?

Round-robin scheduling

First-come, first-served scheduling

Shortest job first scheduling

Priority scheduling

What happens if a process completes execution before its time quantum expires in round-robin scheduling?

The process is terminated

The process is moved to the back of the queue

The process is given another time quantum

The process is given a shorter time quantum

What is the main advantage of round-robin scheduling over other scheduling algorithms?

It ensures fairness by giving equal CPU time to each process

It maximizes CPU utilization by keeping the CPU busy all the time

It reduces response time by giving higher priority to short processes

It minimizes waiting time by giving priority to I/O-bound processes
