RR(Round Robin) process scheduling algorithms question

Here are 30 questions on RR(Round Robin) process scheduling algorithms . Each question is presented in a table format, followed by the solution with Gantt charts, average turnaround time (TAT), and average waiting time (WT).

Question 9: find the average Turn Around Time and Waiting Time of following processes using RR(Round Robin) process scheduling algorithm? Consider the following processes with their Arrival Time, Burst Time (take Quantum Time = 3)

Process Arrival Time Burst Time
P1 0 7
P2 2 5
P3 3 4
P4 5 6
P5 6 3
P6 7 2

Formula:

Turnaround Time (TAT) = Completion Time - Arrival Time

Waiting Time (WT) = Turnaround Time - Burst Time

Solution:

| P1 (0-3) | P2 (3-6) | P3 (6-9) | P1 (9-12) | P4 (12-15) | P5 (15-18) | P2 (18-20) | P6 (20-22) | P3 (22-23) | P1(23-24) | P4(24-27)

Calculations:

Process Completion Time Turnaround Time (TAT) Waiting Time (WT)
P1 24 24 17
P2 20 20 - 2 = 18 18 - 5 = 13
P3 23 23 - 3 = 20 20 - 4 = 16
P4 27 27 - 5 = 22 22 - 6 = 16
P5 18 18 - 6 = 12 12 - 3 = 9
P6 22 22 - 7 = 15 15 - 2 = 13

Average Turnaround Time:

(24 + 18 + 20 + 22 + 12 + 15) / 6 = 18.5

Average Waiting Time:

(17 + 13 + 16 + 16 + 9 + 13) / 6 = 14

Question 10: find the average Turn Around Time and Waiting Time of following processes using RR(Round Robin) process scheduling algorithm? Consider the following processes with their Arrival Time, Burst Time (take Quantum Time = 3)

Process Arrival Time Burst Time
P1 0 5
P2 2 4
P3 4 3
P4 5 6
P5 7 7
P6 8 2

Solution:

Formula:

Turnaround Time (TAT) = Completion Time - Arrival Time

Waiting Time (WT) = Turnaround Time - Burst Time

P1 8 8 - 0 = 8 8 - 5 = 3
P2 15 15 - 2 = 13 13 - 4 = 9
P3 11 11 - 4 = 7 7 - 3 = 4
P4 23 23 - 5 = 18 18 - 6 = 12
P5 27 27 - 7 = 20 20 - 7 = 13
P6 20 20 - 8 = 12 12 - 2 = 10

Average Turnaround Time:

(8 + 13 + 7 + 18 + 20 + 12) / 6 = 13

Average Waiting Time:

(3 + 9 + 4 + 12 + 13 + 10) / 6 = 8.5

Question 11: find the average Turn Around Time and Waiting Time of following processes using RR(Round Robin) process scheduling algorithm? Consider the following processes with their Arrival Time, Burst Time (take Quantum Time = 2)

Process Arrival Time Burst Time
P1 0 6
P2 1 3
P3 2 7
P4 3 5
P5 4 4

Solution:

Given Time Quantum: 2

Formulas:

  • Turnaround Time (TAT) = Completion Time - Arrival Time
  • Waiting Time (WT) = Turnaround Time - Burst Time
