Correct Answer - Option 1 : Minimum CPU utilization

The correct answer is option 1.

CONCEPT

Maximum CPU utilization, maximum throughput, minimum turnaround time, and Minimum waiting time are the optimization criterion in the design of a CPU scheduling algorithm

.

CPU utilization:

In an ideal world, the CPU will be busy 100% of the time, wasting no CPU cycles. On a real machine, CPU utilization should be between 40% and 90%.

Throughput

It is the number of processes completed in a given amount of time. Depending on the processes, rates can range from 10/second to 1 hour.

Turnaround time

It is the amount of time it takes for a process to complete from start to finish.

Waiting time:

The number of time processes spend waiting in the ready queue for their turn to use the CPU.

In general, the average value of criteria should be optimized (Maximize CPU utilization and throughput and minimize all the others.)

However, there are periods when it is desirable to do something different, such as reduce the maximum response time.

Hence the correct answer is Minimum CPU utilization.
