Distinguish between PCS and SCS scheduling.



Distinguish between PCS and SCS scheduling...

Answer / dame kom mane valo

PCS scheduling is done local to the process. It is how the thread library schedules threads onto available LWPs. SCS scheduling is the situation where the operating system schedules kernel threads. On systems using either many-to-one or many-to-many, the two scheduling models are fundamentally different. On systems using one-to-one, PCS and SCS are the same.
