Show Explanation

FIFO: FIFO or FCFS is a non-preemptive mode of CPU scheduling where the processes are allocated CPU based o arrival time, i.e, lower the arrival time, earlier will be the CPU allotment. Each process will be alloted CPU until and unless the process terminates.

MQS(Multilevel Queue Scheduling): In this, processes are classified into different groups. For example, interractive processes(foreground) and batch processes(background) are two types because of their different response time, scheduling needs and priorities. This algorithm partitions the ready queue into separate queues. Processes are permanently assigned to each queue. This is done based upon the properties such as memory size or process type.

MQSF(Multilevel feedback queue scheduling): It is an enhancement of MQS. The principle here is that processes can move between the queues now. In this scheduling, the ready queue is partitioned into multiple queue of different priorities. The processes are assigned to the queues by the system based ontheir CPU-burst time characteristics. This means that if a process consumes too much of CPU time, it is placed into a lower priority queue. So I/O bound and interractive processes stay in the higher priority queues and the CPU bound processes move to the lower priority queues. However, these processes in the lower priority queues should be promoted to the next higher priority queue after a suitable time interval. This technique is known as Aging.
