Program Plan Intro

Scheduling:

  • The act of moving a process from “ready” state to “running” state in a process life cycle is called scheduling.
  • Scheduling is the act of giving access to the system resource by CPU (Central Processing Unit) to threads, processes, or data flows.
  • This is done by various scheduling algorithms, which decide the process that should be given execution time inside the processor, in which the process should be moved from the ready state to running state.
