What is the primary role of a short-term scheduler? Group of answer choices To select the next process to run from the ready queue To allocate memory to processes To select the next process to enter the ready queue from the new state To handle system calls
Added by Brian P.
Step 1
The short-term scheduler, also known as the CPU scheduler, is responsible for deciding which of the processes in the ready queue should be allocated CPU time next. Show more…

Multiblocked queues: Multiple answers are allowed When the event occurs, the entire list of processes in the appropriate queue can be moved to the Blocked state. When the event occurs, the entire list of processes in all queues will be scanned. The Multiblocked queues scheme is a disadvantage for large OS. When the event occurs, the entire list of processes in the appropriate stack can be moved to the Ready state. When the event occurs, the entire list of processes in the appropriate LIFO can be moved to the Ready state. When the event occurs, the entire list of processes in the appropriate queue can be moved to the Running state. When the event occurs, the entire list of processes in the appropriate queue can be moved to the Ready state. The Multiblocked queues scheme is an advantage for large OS.
