The scheduler itself actually doesn't assign priority on its own, typically. Usually a process will try to specify its own priority, but priorities can be changed through system calls, usually made by process managers.
Of course, the scheduler can refuse to allow a process a specified priority if it feels the process doesn't have the actual demand to justify it. Remember, anything in userspace pretty much has to ask permission to do just about anything from the kernel.

What scheduling algorithm is used in Linux?
Linux usually uses a pre-emptive scheduler, which means a process will run until either it makes a system call, or its time slice runs out. This is as opposed to a cooperative scheduler, which allows a process to run until it deems itself ready to go from running to ready state. Needless to say, preemption is a much better model, keeping misbehaving processes from starving other processes of CPU time.

What kind of process scheduling algorithms Linux operating system?
Is this a question asking what kind of algorithms are used in the Linux kernel? Currently, the Linux kernel uses a scheduler called the Completely Fair Scheduler by default, which is itself based on a lot of the design ideas of to O(1) scheduler, wherein for the most part most processes receive the same allotments of time, though also accounts for prioritizing processes. This is a good general scheduler, works quite well for desktops, though one Con Kolivar took the concepts of the CFS to a further degree and created the BFS, which I am uncertain I can say what it means here as it involves a bad word. Recently a patch has been released for the CFS that's only a couple hundred lines long that ends up drastically improving the CFS performance under load.
Name of schedulers in Linux?
In Linux you have Cron which manages most of the scheduling. Of course if you mean scheduling that happens when a user shutdown or starts up a computer you would be talking about init which is the first program started when booting Linux. Alternatively you could use another scheduler such as atd if you are used to an UNIX like scheduler system.
How you will create process in Linux?
A user doesn't directly create processes themselves, instead processes are created anytime a program is run. So, short, but not entirely accurate answer: Do ANYTHING on Linux and you'll cause processes to be created and destroyed.
Which type of process scheduling does Linux and window uses?
Linux has a number of schedulers available in its kernel, plus at least one scheduler available as a patch. But the default schedler is the Completely Fair Scheduler. Like most modern schedulers, it is pre-emptive, meaning that instead of the process deciding when to give up the CPU, the kernel decides for it when to give up the CPU. This keeps even the most uncooperative process from starving the other processes on the computer of CPU time. From what I understand of how CFS works: It keeps an eye on how much of an assigned quantum (length of time.) is actually spent on the CPU by a process and how much of the quantum is spent blocking (Keeping off the CPU to wait for I/O requests to complete, a process can't usually proceed and keep going without requested data. During the time a process is waiting for the hardware, other processes make use of the CPU.) The less time a process actually uses the CPU on its given quantum, the higher a priority it gets so that when the data from an I/O operation is complete the process can quickly execute to the next I/O request and block again. This keeps the CPU busy, but the system responsive to just about any event.I don't know what sort of process scheduling is used on Windows. Windows, unlike Linux, is given a pretty heavy black box treatment when it comes to its users and a great deal about its kernel is not common knowledge. Presumably it is a pre-emptive, priority-based scheduler. Doubtful it's as efficient as CFS.
What is process id of Linux kernel?
The Linux kernel does not have a process id (also called pid). Process 1 is almost always the process scheduler, init. PIDs are assigned to each subsequent process that is started and they will usually vary. Do not remove init, doing so would likely have catastrophic consequences, a kernel panic for instance. Unless you particularly enjoy using the crash utility. $ man crash [JMH]
What is the process id in Linux inid?
In Linux, the process ID (PID) is a unique numerical identifier assigned to each running process. It allows the operating system to manage processes efficiently. You can view the PID of processes using commands like ps, top, or pgrep. The PID is essential for process management tasks such as signaling, terminating, or adjusting process priorities.
Is Linux are real time operating system?
It can be. The kernel has a real time process scheduler, and there's a popular real time patchset that is often used to modify the kernel to be a more dedicated real-time system.
What are the PS and pstree commands in Linux?
PS (see "man 1 PS") in Linux is a program that generally comes with the operating system that allows you to see information about the running processes. pstree is a program that lets you see the processes as a tree, to see which process started which other process, for example.
What command deletes any process in Linux?
Processes aren't "deleted", they are "killed." The "kill" command, followed by the process ID number, should kill the process. Most distros also have a "killall" command, which will kill processes that have the name you specified.
How about the process scheduling for time sharing processes in Linux?
Most UNIX based Operating systems use a "time slice" method of scheduling. A ready process will operate for it's allocated time slice, then be put on the "ready queue" and the scheduler will first attempt to find the next ready process of highest priority to execute. It may be the same process again if no other process of higher priority is ready. Ready implies that the process is not waiting for resources and is not waiting for a timer or other interrupt. When a process has run until it is no longer ready, it is put on the queue along with a list of resources or interrupts that it needs.
