scheduling - 2024 Chicago Open

Question

Users are given complete control over algorithms for this task through its namesake “activations.” Shortly after landing, the Mars Pathfinder needed to be debugged from Earth due to an error in this task, during which a watchdog would periodically trigger system resets. The degree of flexibility allowed by algorithms for this task differentiates hard, firm, and soft (-5[1])real-time (15[1])systems. (15[1])In 2023, the EEVDF algorithm replaced the WFQ algorithm used for this task by a namesake (*) “Completely Fair” process in (10[1])the (10[1])Linux kernel. (10[1])Operating systems (10[1])may leverage run queues and multilevel feedback queues to achieve this task. (10[1])Basic algorithms for this task include shortest job first, (10[2])first-in–first-out, (10[1])and round-robin. For 10 points, name this task during which the operating system allocates resources to jobs. ■END■ (0[3])

ANSWER: scheduling [accept more specific answers such as CPU scheduling or process scheduling or task scheduling; accept scheduler activations; prompt on time-sharing; prompt on priority assignment or prioritization by asking “that is performed by algorithms for what task?”]
