Introduction: First Come First Served is the scheduling rule, which helps to arrange the sequence in the order. Here, the first come would be served first.

b)

Summary Introduction

To determine: Sequence of jobs based on decision rule Earliest Due Date (EDD).

c)

Summary Introduction

To determine: Sequence of jobs based on decision rule Shortest Processing Time (SPT).

d)

Summary Introduction

To determine: Sequence of jobs based on decision rule Longest Processing Time (LPT).
