10Define the term seek time and rotational delay in disk scheduling. Suppose that a disk has 100 cylinders, numbered 0 to 99. The drive is currently serving a request at cylinder 43 and previous request was at cylinder 25. The queue of pending request, in FIFO order is: 86, 70, 13, 74, 48, 9, 22, 50, 30 Starting from the current head position, what is total distance (in cylinders) that the disk arm moves to satisfy all pending request for each of following disk scheduling algorithms? a) FCFS b) SSTF c) SCAN d) LOOK
A worked answer is on its wayMeanwhile, read the Operating System notes for this topic.
