operating system task scheduling
Operating system task scheduling is a mechanism used by operating systems to efficiently allocate and manage system resources for executing various tasks. It involves determining the order and timing of task execution based on priority, time constraints, and resource availability. The scheduling algorithm determines which task gets access to the CPU and for how long, ensuring fairness, efficiency, and responsiveness in multitasking environments.
