Best Answer

There are two standard job schedulers in Unix - 'at' and 'cron'. Neither can be answered in a short answer so it is suggested that you do an internet search on either of these two commands, or use the 'man' or 'info' command on 'at' or 'cron' on your Unix/Linux system.

The Linux Scheduler works by scheduling tasks based on their dynamic and static priorities. Linux computes the tasks in different intervals, choosing the most important to go first.
