Difference between CPU time and Scheduling (computing)

CPU time vs. Scheduling (computing)

CPU time (or process time) is the amount of time for which a central processing unit (CPU) was used for processing instructions of a computer program or operating system, as opposed to elapsed time, which includes for example, waiting for input/output (I/O) operations or entering low-power (idle) mode. In computing, scheduling is the method by which work specified by some means is assigned to resources that complete the work.

Similarities between CPU time and Scheduling (computing)

CPU time and Scheduling (computing) have 8 things in common (in Unionpedia): Central processing unit, Computer multitasking, Context (computing), Operating system, Process (computing), System call, Thread (computing), User space.

Central processing unit

A central processing unit (CPU) is the electronic circuitry within a computer that carries out the instructions of a computer program by performing the basic arithmetic, logical, control and input/output (I/O) operations specified by the instructions.

Computer multitasking

In computing, multitasking is the concurrent execution of multiple tasks (also known as processes) over a certain period of time.

Context (computing)

In computer science, a task context is the minimal set of data used by a task (which may be a process or thread) that must be saved to allow a task to be interrupted, and later continued from the same point.

Operating system

An operating system (OS) is system software that manages computer hardware and software resources and provides common services for computer programs.

Process (computing)

In computing, a process is an instance of a computer program that is being executed.

System call

In computing, a system call is the programmatic way in which a computer program requests a service from the kernel of the operating system it is executed on.

Thread (computing)

In computer science, a thread of execution is the smallest sequence of programmed instructions that can be managed independently by a scheduler, which is typically a part of the operating system.

User space

A modern computer operating system usually segregates virtual memory into kernel space and user space.

CPU time and Scheduling (computing) Comparison

CPU time has 29 relations, while Scheduling (computing) has 134. As they have in common 8, the Jaccard index is 4.91% = 8 / (29 + 134).
