Various Variants of Round Robin Scheduling Algorithm

In order to use the computer processor efficiently, different scheduling algorithms are used to manage the executionof multiple processes. One popular algorithm is called Round Robin (RR), where each process is given a short amount of time to run on the processor before switching to the next process inthe queue. The length of this time period, called a time quantum, is important in determining how efficient the scheduling is. If the time quantum is too long, it can increase the time it takes for a process to respond. If it is too short, it can increase the amount of time the processor spends switching between processes instead of actually executing them. In this paper, we explore different variants of the RR algorithm and compare their performancein terms of waiting time, turnaround time, and the number of times the processor switches between processes.
