A New Metric: Response Time

Explore the concept of response time in CPU scheduling, understand how it differs from turnaround time, and learn why it is crucial for interactive system performance. This lesson helps you analyze scheduling policies and their sensitivity to response time, preparing you to design schedulers that enhance user experience.

Thus, if we knew job lengths, and that jobs only used the CPU, and our only metric was turnaround time, STCF would be a great policy. In fact, for a number of early batch computing systems, these types of scheduling ...
