Can you name different algorithms used for task or process scheduling?

Answer from AI

Various algorithms are used in task and process scheduling, including:

  • FCFS (First-Come, First-Served) — tasks are executed in the order they arrive.
  • Round Robin — each process is given a time quantum in turn.
  • SJF (Shortest Job First) — the task with the shortest execution time is selected.
  • Priority Scheduling — tasks are executed based on priority.
  • Multilevel Queue — processes are distributed across multiple queues with different priorities.
  • Multilevel Feedback Queue — an extension of the previous with the ability to move tasks between queues.

In Go, goroutine scheduling is implemented by a scheduler that uses an M:N model, where multiple goroutines (G) are distributed across system threads (M). The scheduling algorithms in Go are optimized for high concurrency and minimal overhead.
