A disadvantage of non preemptive scheduling is that it could introduce blocking delays in tasks that are high priority. With this type of scheduling you can also not meet deadlines because decisions can only be made after the task is completed.

What is the difference between preemptive and non preemptive scheduling?

1.) in preemptive scheduling we prempt the currently executing process, in non preemptive scheduling we allow the current process to finish its CPU burst time... 2.) in preemptive scheduling the process is forcibly sent to waiting state when a process with higher priority comes to CPU, in non preeemptive scheduling the process at running state can not be forced to leave the CPU until it completes........


Is windows xp preemptive or non preemptive?

It uses pre-emptive scheduling. It has what is called a pre-emptive multi-tasking kernel.


Does Windows 7 use preemptive scheduling or non-preemptive?

well sometime it does its just with the syames your useing.


Difference between preemptive and non preemptive system.with example?

Preemptive scheduling allows a process to be interrupted in the midst of its execution, taking the CPU away and allocating it to another process.Non-preemptive scheduling ensures that a process relinquishes control of the CPU only when it finishes with its current CPU burst.


What is preemptive scheduling and non preemptive scheduling?

Tasks are usually assigned with priorities. At times it is necessary to run a certain task that has a higher priority before another task although it is running. Therefore, the running task is interrupted for some time and resumed later when the priority task has finished its execution. This is called preemptive scheduling.Eg: Round robinIn non-preemptive scheduling, a running task is executed till completion. It cannot be interrupted.Eg First In First Out

What is a preemptive and non preemptive algorithm and explain with example?

Preemptive scheduler reruns scheduling decision when process becomes ready. If the new process has priority over running process, the CPU preempts the running process and executes the new process. Non-preemptive scheduler only does scheduling decision when running process voluntarily gives up CPU. In effect, it allows every running process to finish its CPU burst.


State why strict non-preemptive scheduling is unlikely to be used in a computer centre?

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.


What type of scheduling is there in RTOS?

A scheduler is the heart of every RTOS. It provides the algorithms to select the task for execution. Three common scheduling algorithms are > Cooperative scheduling > Round-robin scheduling > Preemptive scheduling RTOS uses preemptive (priority based) scheduling. In some cases, real-time requirements can be met by using static scheduling.


Which preemptive version is round robin scheduling?

FIFO (first in first out)


What do you mean by non-preemptive shortest job first scheduling explain with an example?

Non pre-emptive means once CPU starts executing one process, it will not be taken out of the CPU until it is terminated or it has to wait for some event. In preemptive SJF scheduling, current running process is moved to the ready queue when a new process with a shorter CPU burst joins the ready queue.


What is the difference between pre emptive and non preemptive scheduling?

in pre emptive scheduling. a limited time period is fixed for every process in the CPU. no matter whether the process is completed or not ... the resource assinged to it will be taken back back abd will be given to the next process in the queue.while in non preemptive the resorces are with a process untill it finishes completely others wait for their turn till then. this kind of scheduling has a high probability of going into a deadlock.
