Correct answer: D

Option 4 : Time Sharing OS

The round-robin (RR) scheduling algorithm is designed especially for timesharing systems.

It is similar to FCFS scheduling, but preemption is added to enable the system to switch between processes.

A small unit of time, called a time quantum or time slice, is defined.

The ready queue is treated as a circular queue. The CPU scheduler goes around the ready queue, allocating the CPU to each process for a time interval of up to 1-time​ quantum
