OS resource management techniques[edit]
| Technique | Description |
|---|---|
| scheduling | Scheduling is the method by which work is assigned to resources that complete the work.[3]. There are many different scheduling strategies. The main purposes of scheduling algorithms are to minimize resource starvation and to ensure fairness amongst the parties utilizing the resources[4] |
| policies | Given a particular task, policy refers to what needs to be done (i.e. activities to perform) and mechanism refers to how to do it (i.e. implementation to enforce policy).[5] |
| multitasking | foo |
| virtual memory | foo |
| paging | foo |
| interrupt | foo |
| polling | foo |
