Hi i'm a Computer Science student at Dalhousie University in Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada, and i am doing a paper on FreeBSD, and i was wondering if someone could help answer a couple questions on processes for me?
o What states do processes move through? o How does the OS execute? (within the context of user processes.. as a separate process?) o How are new processes created? Who can create them? o What are the most important scheduling criteria for this OS? o How does the short-term scheduler select the next process to place in the CPU? What's the selection function? What's the decision mode? o Is there a single ready queue or multiple ready queues? Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks -Alan Tek _______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
