Scheduling is the central concept used frequently in Operating System. It helps in choosing the processes for execution. Round Robin (RR) is one of the most widely used CPU scheduling algorithm. But, its performance degrades with respect to context switching, which is an overhead and it occurs during each scheduling. Overall performance of the system depends on choice of an optimal time quantum, so that context switching can be reduced. In this paper, we have proposed a new variant of RR scheduling algorithm, known as Dynamic Quantum with Readjusted Round Robin (DQRRR) algorithm.We have experimentally shown that performance of DQRRR is better than RR by reducing number of context switching, average waiting time and average turnaround time.

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
