How nice value is used to calculate process priority?

In Linux we can set guidelines for the CPU to follow when it is looking at all the tasks it has to do. These guidelines are called niceness or nice value.The Linux niceness scale goes from -20 to 19. The lower the number the more priority that task gets. If the niceness value is high number like 19 the task will be set to the lowest priority and the CPU will process it whenever it gets a chance. The default nice value is zero.

In some operating systems processes can change their priorities using a special system call called nice What restrictions might be imposed on using this system call and why?

"Nice" was designed to lower the priority of some longer running processes or programs so they would give up their CPU time in favor of other running processes (being "nice"). One restriction would be to not allow a non-priviledged user to raise the priority above normal programs (such as a realtime level), as well as not being able to manipulate the priorities of other running processes not owned by that user.
