(B) (A)-(III), (B)-(I), (C)-(IV), (D)-(II)
(C) (A)-(I), (B)-(II), (C)-(IV), (D)-(III)
(D) (A)-(III), (B)-(IV), (C)-(I), (D)-(II)
✓ Correct Answer: Option B Verified Solution

📘 Step-by-Step Solution & Detailed Explanation:

Solution

We are asked to match CPU scheduling algorithms with their key features.

  • FCFS (First Come First Serve) → Often long average waiting time (III): FCFS schedules processes in the order of arrival, which can lead to long waiting times if a long process arrives first.
  • Round Robin → FCFS + preemption (I): Round Robin is a preemptive version of FCFS where each process gets a time slice (quantum).
  • Multi-level Queue Scheduling → Permanent assignment of processes to one specific queue (IV): Processes are permanently assigned to a queue based on priority or type.
  • Multi-level Feedback Queue → Allows processes to move between queues (II): This scheduling allows processes to move between queues based on their behavior and execution history.

Thus, the correct matching is:

(A)-(III), (B)-(I), (C)-(IV), (D)-(II)
