Do the following problem. (It is problem 5.12 on page 220 of edition #8.)
Consider the following set of processes, with the length of the
CPU burst given in milliseconds:
Process Burst Time Priority
P1 10 3
P2 1 1
P3 2 3
P4 1 4
P5 5 2
The processes are assumed to have arrived in the order P1, P2, P3, P4, P5,
all at time 0.
a. Draw four Gantt charts that illustrate the execution of these
processes using the following scheduling algorithms: FCFS, SJF,
nonpreemptive priority (a smaller priority number implies a higher
priority), and RR (quantum = 1).
b. What is the turnaround time of each process for each of the
scheduling algorithms in part a?
c. What is the waiting time of each process for each of these schedul-
ing algorithms?
d. Which of the algorithms results in the minimum average waiting
time (over all processes)?
