  • Q1
    What is the primary purpose of a task scheduler in an operating system?
    To manage the execution order of processes
    To provide internet connectivity
    To allocate memory to processes
    To handle input/output operations
    30s
  • Q2
    Which scheduling algorithm assigns priorities to processes based on their importance and may allow for preemptive task switching?
    First-come, first-served scheduling
    Round-robin scheduling
    Priority scheduling
    Shortest job next scheduling
    30s
  • Q3
    What is a key advantage of using a round-robin scheduling algorithm?
    Higher process throughput
    Reduced context switching overhead
    Lower memory usage
    Fairness in process execution
    30s
  • Q4
    In a multi-tasking environment, what is the primary role of context switching?
    To allocate additional memory to processes
    To synchronize data across processes
    To manage device input and output
    To switch the CPU from one process to another
    30s
  • Q5
    Which scheduling method ensures that the next process to execute is always the one with the highest priority?
    Non-preemptive priority scheduling
    Round-robin scheduling
    Preemptive priority scheduling
    First-come, first-served scheduling
    30s
  • Q6
    What is a key disadvantage of the first-come, first-served (FCFS) scheduling algorithm?
    Inability to manage memory
    Convoy effect
    Inefficient CPU usage
    Starvation of processes
    30s
  • Q7
    What is the main objective of implementing multi-level queue scheduling?
    To classify and prioritize processes based on their types and resource requirements
    To ensure all processes execute in a strict time frame
    To minimize memory usage
    To allow only one process to run at a time
    30s
  • Q8
    Which type of task scheduling is characterized by assigning fixed time slices to each process in a cyclic order?
    First-come, first-served scheduling
    Round-robin scheduling
    Shortest job first scheduling
    Priority scheduling
    30s
  • Q9
    Which scheduling algorithm is designed to minimize the average waiting time for a batch of processes?
    Shortest Job Next (SJN)
    Priority Scheduling
    First-Come, First-Served (FCFS)
    Round-Robin
    30s
  • Q10
    What is the role of a task scheduler in a real-time operating system?
    To provide user interface responsiveness
    To ensure timely execution of processes based on deadlines
    To optimize CPU usage
    To manage memory allocation
    30s
