Best Answer

Preemptive Multitasking basically involves the operating system sharing CPU time among many processes. An executing process is terminated when its time slice finished and the the CPU control is given to the next process. All processes get CPU time.

In Cooperative Multitasking, however, one process can hold the CPU for as long as it needs it. For the cooperative to work, all programmes must cooperate, hence the name.

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........


What is the main difference between a preemptive scheduler and a non-preemptive scheduler?

Non-preemptive scheduler gives a process control of computer until it gives it up. Preemptive scheduler ensures that all processes are given equal(or different) priority, so they run only for a short amount of time, before control is given to another process. Which means that preemptive system is capable of running many processes 'at once', without crashing when one process refuses to give up CPU control If a bug like infinite loop, or a process refusing to give up control(a virus for example) is encountered, only thing left to do is to reset the 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.
