1. What is the difference between preemptive and non-preemptive scheduling?

Preemptive Scheduling is when a computer process is interrupted and the CPU’s power is given over to another process with a higher priority. This type of scheduling occurs when a process switches from running state to a ready state or from a waiting state to a ready state.

Non-Preemptive Scheduling

Non-Preemptive Scheduling allows the process to run through to completion before moving onto the next task.
