Process Interleaving

Post by netwizio »

Suppose that we have a multiprogrammed computer in which each job has identical characteristics. In one computation period, T, for a job, half the time is spent in I/O and the other half in processor activity. Each job runs for a total of N periods. Assume that a simple round-robin priority is used and that I/O operations can overlap with processor operation. Define the following quantities:

Turnaround Time = actual time to complete a job.
Throughput = average number of jobs completed per time period T.
Processor utilization = percentage of time that the processor is active (not waiting).
Compute these quantities for one, two, and four simultaneous jobs, assuming that the period T is distributed in each of the following ways:

a)I/O first half, processor second half.
b)b. I/O first and fourth quarters, processor second and third quarters
