Best Answer

Once the CPU has been allocated to a process, the process keeps the CPU until it releases the CPU either by terminating or by switching to the waiting state. In a general purpose computer system, users share the CPU and care about system responsiveness. If the system uses non-preemptive scheduling, some users may sit before the monitor for several hours without doing anything other than waiting for the set of processes in front of them in the system queue to finish. So, strictly non-preemptive scheduling is unlikely to be used in a general purpose computer system.

when scheduling takes place that, a process switches from the running state to waiting state and when a process terminates , we say that the scheduling scheme is called non preemptive or co operative . Otherwise it is preemptive.
