Modern Personal Computer

A modern personal computer or workstation executes many simultaneous processes. These processes compete to use the computer’s resources—peripherals, like printers and hard drives, the network, and, most significantly, the main memory and CPU. Investigate an operating system that you are familiar with and identify how it manages use of the CPU(s). In a 2-3 page paper, address the following points:

• Explain, in detail, the boot-up process.
• What is its scheduling strategy for each class?
• How can a user or programmer override the built-in policies?
• Explain how effective you believe this approach to be.
• How well did operating system designers balance simplicity and ease of use with efficiency?
