Suppose that a disk has 100 cylinders, numbered 0 to 99. The drive is currently serving a request at cylinder 45. The queue of pending request, in FIFO order is: 88, 72, 13, 74, 48, 9, 22, 50, 35…
10Suppose that a disk has 100 cylinders, numbered 0 to 99. The drive is currently serving a request at cylinder 45. The queue of pending request, in FIFO order is: 88, 72, 13, 74, 48, 9, 22, 50, 35 and 50. What is the total distance (in cylinders) that the disk arm moves to satisfy all pending request for each of the following disk scheduling algorithms? a) FCFS b) SCAN c) SSTF
A worked answer is on its wayMeanwhile, read the Operating System notes for this topic.
