A uni-processor computer system only has two processes, both of which alternate $$10$$ $$ms$$ $$CPU$$ bursts with $$90$$ $$ms$$ $${\rm I}/O$$ bursts. Both the processes were created at nearly the same time. The $${\rm I}/O$$ of both processes can proceed in parallel. Which of the following scheduling strategies will result in the least $$CPU$$ utilization (over a long period of time) for this system?
A
First come First served scheduling
B
Shortest remaining time first scheduling
C
Static priority scheduling with different priorities for the two processes
D
Round robin scheduling with a time quantum of $$5$$ $$ms.$$
