Round Robin Algorithm

The Operating system can process a job in many ways , based on time , priority or first come first serve . But instead of all these we can go to another scheduling algorithm known as Round Robin Algorithm.

In this case

• Each process is provided a fix time to execute called quantum.
• Once a process is executed for given time period. Process is preempted and other process executes for given time period.
• Context switching is used to save states of preempted processes.
