About this document
Disk Scheduling Algorithms in OS by Sk Mujeef is a document available to read on EtoBox.
1) Disk scheduling algorithms aim to minimize seek time and maximize disk bandwidth when servicing I/O requests. 2) Common algorithms include FCFS, SSTF, SCAN, C-SCAN, and C-LOOK. SSTF services the request with the shortest seek distance from the current head position while SCAN and C-SCAN move the disk head back and forth across cylinders. 3) The best algorithm depends on factors like workload and request patterns. SSTF and LOOK are often good default choices but SCAN and C-SCAN perform better under h
