FCFS Scheduling Algorithm

It is the simplest Disk Scheduling algorithm. It services the IO requests in the order in which they arrive. There is no starvation in this algorithm, every request is serviced.

Disadvantages

  • The scheme does not optimize the seek time.
  • The request may come from different processes therefore there is the possibility of inappropriate movement of the head.

Example

Consider the following disk request sequence for a disk with 100 tracks 45, 21, 67, 90, 4, 50, 89, 52, 61, 87, 25

Head pointer starting at 50 and moving in left direction. Find the number of head movements in cylinders using FCFS scheduling.

Solution


os fcfs scheduling algorithm

Number of cylinders moved by the head

= (50-45)+(45-21)+(67-21)+(90-67)+(90-4)+(50-4)+(89-50)+(61-52)+(87-61)+(87-25)

= 5 + 24 + 46 + 23 + 86 + 46 + 49 + 9 + 26 + 62

= 376
