The specific operating system scheduler that favors processes with shorter CPU burst times, aiming to minimize the average waiting time, is called Shortest-Job-First (SJF). An operating system scheduler is a component of the operating system that selects which process should be executed by the Central Processing Unit (CPU) next. A process is an instance of a computer program that is being executed. A CPU burst time refers to the amount of time a process needs to use the CPU before it performs an I/O operation or terminates. The SJF scheduling algorithm operates by always selecting the process ....
