technology and computing operating systemsWhat is multi queue scheduling?
Also, what is multi queue?
Multi-queue lets you configure more than one traffic queue for each supported network interface, so that more than one SND CPU can handle the traffic of a single network interface at a time. This balances the load efficiently between SND CPUs and CoreXL firewall instances CPUs.
In respect to this, what are the 3 different types of scheduling queues?
Three types of the scheduler are 1) Long term 2) Short term 3) Medium-term. Long term scheduler regulates the program and select process from the queue and loads them into memory for execution. The medium-term scheduler enables you to handle the swapped out-processes.
2. In Multilevel queue (MLQ) the processes are permanently assigned to one queue based on their memory size, process priority or process type. In Multilevel Feedback queue (MLFQ) it allows a process to move between the queues, according to the characteristics of their CPU burst.
