Last, Current, Next Lecture • Last time: • Birth-death processes • M/M/1 systems • Today • CPU Scheduling • Scheduling Algorithms • M/M/m systems • Next time: • Caching and Virtual Memory
Dispatcher • Dispatcher module gives control of the CPU to the process selected by the short-term scheduler; this involves: • switching context • switching to user mode • jumping to the proper location in the user program to restart that program • Dispatch latency – time it takes for the dispatcher to stop one process and start another running
Performance metrics and objectives • Performance metrics: • CPU Utilization Fraction of time CPU does useful work over total time • Throughput Number of jobs finished per unit of time • Turnaround time Time spent by a job in the system • Response time Time to get the results • Waiting time Time waiting to start processing • All these are random variables we are interested in averages!! • The objectives of system managers (M) and users (U): • Maximize CPU utilization M • Maximize throughput M • Minimize turnaround time U • Minimize waiting time U • Minimize response time U
P1 P2 P3 0 24 27 30 First-Come, First-Served (FCFS) ProcessBurst Time P1 24 P2 3 P3 3 • Processes arrive in the order: P1P2P3 Gantt Chart for the schedule: • Waiting time for P1 = 0; P2 = 24; P3 = 27 • Average waiting time: (0 + 24 + 27)/3 = 17 • Convoy effectshort process behind long process
P2 P3 P1 0 3 6 30 FCFS Scheduling (Cont’d.) • Now processes arrive in the order: P2P3P1 • Gantt chart: • Waiting time for P1 = 6;P2 = 0; P3 = 3 • Average waiting time: (6 + 0 + 3)/3 = 3 • Much better!!
Shortest-Job-First (SJF) • Use the length of the next CPU burst to schedule the process with the shortest time. • SJF is optimal minimum average waiting time for a given set of processes • Two schemes: • Non-preemptive the process cannot be preempted until completes its CPU burst • Preemptive if a new process arrives with CPU burst length less than remaining time of current executing process, preempt. known as Shortest-Remaining-Time-First (SRTF)
P1 P3 P2 P4 0 3 7 8 12 16 Non-preemptive SJF example Process Arrival TimeBurst Time P1 0.0 7 P2 2.0 4 P3 4.0 1 P4 5.0 4 • SJF (non-preemptive) • Average waiting time = (0 + 6 + 3 + 7)/4 = 4
P1 P2 P3 P2 P4 P1 11 16 0 2 4 5 7 Shortest-Remaining-Time-First (SRTF) (Preemptive SJF) example Process Arrival TimeBurst Time P1 0.0 7 P2 2.0 4 P3 4.0 1 P4 5.0 4 • Shortest-Remaining-Time-First • Average waiting time = (9 + 1 + 0 +2)/4 = 3
Estimating the length of next CPU burst • Done using the length of previous CPU bursts, using exponential averaging
Exponential averaging • =0 • n+1 = n • Recent history does not count • =1 • n+1 = tn • Only the actual last CPU burst counts • If we expand the formula, we get: n+1 = tn+(1 - ) tn-1+ … +(1 - )j tn-j+ … +(1 - )n +1 0 • Since both and (1 - ) are less than or equal to 1, each successive term has less weight than its predecessor
Priority scheduling • Each process has a priority and the process with the highest priority (smallest integer highest priority) is scheduled next. • Preemptive • Non-preemptive • SJF is a priority scheduling where priority is the predicted next CPU burst time • Problem Starvation – low priority processes may never execute • Solution to sarvation Aging – as time progresses increase the priority of the process
Round Robin (RR) • Each process gets a small unit of CPU time (time quantum), usually 10-100 milliseconds. After this time has elapsed, the process is preempted and added to the end of the ready queue. • If there are n processes in the ready queue and the time quantum is q, then each process gets 1/n of the CPU time in chunks of at most q time units at once. No process waits more than (n-1)q time units. • Performance • q large FIFO • q small q must be large with respect to context switch, otherwise overhead is too high
P1 P2 P3 P4 P1 P3 P4 P1 P3 P3 0 20 37 57 77 97 117 121 134 154 162 RR with time slice q = 20 ProcessBurst Time P1 53 P2 17 P3 68 P4 24 Typically, higher average turnaround than SJF, but better response
Multilevel queue • Ready queue is partitioned into separate queues each with its own scheduling algorithm : • foreground (interactive) RR • background (batch) FCFS • Scheduling between the queues • Fixed priority scheduling - (i.e., serve all from foreground then from background). Possibility of starvation. • Time slice – each queue gets a certain amount of CPU time which it can schedule amongst its processes; i.e., • 80% to foreground in RR • 20% to background in FCFS
Multilevel feedback queue • A process can move between the various queues; aging can be implemented this way • Multilevel-feedback-queue scheduler characterized by: • number of queues • scheduling algorithms for each queue • strategy when to upgrade/demote a process • strategy to decide the queue a process will enter when it needs service
Multilevel feedback queue example • Three queues: • Q0 – RR with time quantum 8 milliseconds • Q1 – RR time quantum 16 milliseconds • Q2 – FCFS • Scheduling • A new job enters queue Q0which is servedFCFS. When it gains CPU, job receives 8 milliseconds. If it does not finish in 8 milliseconds, job is moved to queue Q1. • At Q1 job is again served FCFS and receives 16 additional milliseconds. If it still does not complete, it is preempted and moved to queue Q2.
Unix scheduler • The higher the number quantifying the priority the lower the actual process priority. • Priority = (recent CPU usage)/2 + base • Recent CPU usage how often the process has used the CPU since the last time priorities were calculated. • Does this strategy raises or lowers the priority of a CPU-bound processes? • Example: • base = 60 • Recent CPU usage: P1 =40, P2 =18, P3 = 10
Multiple-processor scheduling • CPU scheduling more complex when multiple CPUs are available • Homogeneous processors within a multiprocessor • Load sharing • Asymmetric multiprocessing – only one processor accesses the system data structures, alleviating the need for data sharing
Scheduling algorithms • A scheduling problems is defined by : • The machine environment • A set of side constrains and characteristics • The optimality criterion • Machine environments: • 1 One-machine. • P Parallel identical machines • Q Parallel machines of different speeds • R Parallel unrelated machines • O Open shop. m specialized machines; a job requires a number of operations each demanding processing by a specific machine • F Floor shop
One-machine environment • n jobs 1,2,….n. • pj amount of time required by job j. • rj the release time of job j, the time when job j is available for processing. • wj the weight of job j. • dj due time of job j; time job j should be completed. • A schedule S specifies for each job j which pj units of time are used to process the job. • CSj the completion time of job j under schedule S. • The makespan of S is: CSmax = max CSj • The average completion time is
One-machine environment (cont’d) • Average weighted completion time: • Optimality criteria minimize: • the makespan CSmax • the average completion time : • The average weighted completion time: • the lateness of job j • maximum lateness of any job under schedule S. Another optimality criteria, minimize maximum lateness.
Priority rules for one machine environment • Theorem: scheduling jobs according to SPT – shortest processing time is optimal for • Theorem: scheduling jobs in non-decreasing order of is optimal for
Earliest deadline first (EDF) • Dynamic scheduling algorithm for real-time OS. • When a scheduling event occurs (task finishes, new task released, etc.) the priority queue will be searched for the process closest to its deadline. This process will then be scheduled for execution next. • EDF is an optimal scheduling preemptive algorithm for uniprocessors, in the following sense: if a collection of independent jobs, each characterized by an arrival time, an execution requirement, and a deadline, can be scheduled (by any algorithm) such that all the jobs complete by their deadlines, the EDF will schedule this collection of jobs such that they all complete by their deadlines.
EDF The schedulability test for EDF is: In this case U = 1/8 +2/5 + 4/10 = 0.925 = 92.5% It has been proved that the problem of deciding if it is possible to schedule a set of periodic processes is NP-hard if the periodic processes use semaphores to enforce mutual exclusion.
Priority Inversion • A high priority process is blocked by a lower priority one. • Example: J1 and J3 share a data structure guarded by a binary semaphore S. • prty(J1) > prty(J2) > prty(J3). • J1 in initiated while J3 is in its critical section • When J1 attempts to enter the critical section it is blocked. • The duration of this blocking cannot be determined as because J3 can be preempted by a higher priority job J2. prty
