Multi-Processor Scheduling

Multi-processor scheduling refers to the method of managing tasks in computing systems that have multiple processors or cores. It ensures that processes, or sets of tasks, are efficiently assigned to each processor, optimizing performance and resource use. The goal is to complete computations faster by balancing the workload among the processors, preventing any single processor from becoming a bottleneck. Effective scheduling improves system responsiveness and can enhance multitasking, allowing for smoother operation in applications ranging from personal computers to large-scale servers.
