Its regarding disk scheduling in any OS..
When a process wants to do disk I/O, it makes a call to the operating system. Since the operation may take some time, the process is put into a blocked state, and the I/O request is sent to a part of the OS called a device driver. If the disk is idle, the operation can be started right away, but if the disk is busy servicing another request, it must be added to a queue of requests and wait its turn. Thus the total delay seen by the process has several components:
MS-DOS stands for Microsoft Disk Operating System.
Every version of Windows, even Vista, bundles a copy of MS-DOS. You can create an MS-DOS boot floppy by formatting a floppy disk, and checking the "Create an MS-DOS startup disk" box.
MS-DOS views the data stored on disk as a stream of BYTES. Chapter 11: MS-DOS InternalsPg: 278Book: Operating Systems

Technically speaking, there is no MS-DOS 8. MS-DOS 6.22 was the last version of MS-DOS released as a separate product. Future updates to MS-DOS were bundled with Windows. You can create a basic MS-DOS boot disk that is branded as being "MS-DOS 8" by formatting a floppy with the Startup disk option in Windows Me, Windows XP, Windows Vista, and Windows 7. These are not typically considered "full" versions of MS-DOS, because they lack many of the programs conatined in 6.22 and prior.
