Solution

To calculate the average waiting time for the given processes in First Come First Serve (FCFS) scheduling, we first need to calculate the waiting time for each process. The waiting time is the amount of time a process has been in the ready queue waiting to get the CPU.

  1. Waiting time for P1 = 0. (As it is the first process so, it does not wait)

  2. Waiting time for P2 = Finish time of P1 - Arrival time of P2 = (Arrival time of P1 + Burst time of P1) - Arrival time of P2 = (3 + 3) - 6 = 0

  3. Waiting time for P3 = Finish time of P2 - Arrival time of P3 = (Arrival time of P2 + Burst time of P2) - Arrival time of P3 = (6 + 6) - 9 = 3

Now, the average waiting time = (Waiting time of P1 + Waiting time of P2 + Waiting time of P3) / Number of processes

So, the average waiting time = (0 + 0 + 3) / 3 = 1 unit of time.

What is the average turnaround time for these processes with the FCFSscheduling algorithm?b. What is the average turnaround time for these processes with theSJF scheduling algorithm?c. The SJF algorithm is supposed to improve performance, but notice that we choseto run process P1 at time 0 because we did not know that two shorter processes wouldarrive soon. Compute what the average turnaround time will be if the CPU is left idle forthe first 1 unit and then SJF scheduling is used. Remember that processes P1 and P2 arewaiting during this idle time, so their waiting time may increase.
