Which CPU scheduling algorithm prefers the process with the shortest burst time?
Show Hint
- FCFS
- SJF
- Round Robin
- Priority Scheduling
The Correct Option is B
Solution and Explanation
Step 1: Definition of SJF.
SJF (Shortest Job First) is a non-preemptive CPU scheduling algorithm that selects the process with the shortest burst time for execution next. It minimizes the average waiting time.
Step 2: Analysis of other options.
- (1) FCFS: First Come First Serve executes processes in the order of their arrival, not based on burst time.
- (3) Round Robin: This algorithm assigns fixed time slices to processes, regardless of their burst time.
- (4) Priority Scheduling: Processes are scheduled based on their priority, not burst time.
Step 3: Conclusion.
The correct answer is **SJF**, which prefers the process with the shortest burst time.
