Which of the following is an example of spooled device?

Consider $$n$$ processes sharing the $$CPU$$ in a round-robin fashion. Assuming that each process switch takes $$s$$ seconds, what must be the quantum size $$q$$ such that the overhead resulting from process switching is minimized but, at the same time each process is guaranteed to get its turn at the $$CPU$$ at least every $$t$$ seconds?

Four jobs are waiting to be run. Their expected run times are $$6, 3, 5$$ and $$x$$. $${\rm I}$$n what order should they be run to minimize the average response time?

When the result of a computation depends on the speed of the processes involved there is said to be
