A scheduling algorithm assigns priority proportional to the waiting time of a process. Every process starts with priority zero (the lowest priority). The scheduler re-evaluates the process priorities every T time units and decides the next process to schedule. Which one of the following is TRUE if the processes have no I/O operations and all arrive at time zero?

  1. A.

    This algorithm is equivalent to the first-come-first-serve algorithm

  2. B.

    This algorithm is equivalent to the round-robin algorithm.

  3. C.

    This algorithm is equivalent to the shortest-job-first algorithm.

  4. D.

     This algorithm is equivalent to the shortest-remaining-time-first algorithm
