Process Virtualization

Process Management This component deals with the creation, scheduling, and termination of processes. It includes the process control block (PCB) data structure for managing process information. The process management component ensures that processes share CPU time fairly and efficiently, and it handles process synchronization and communication . Process management is a crucial aspect of operating systems that involves the creation, scheduling, termination, and coordination of processes. A process represents an executing instance of a computer program, and process management ensures that multiple processes can run concurrently and share system resources efficiently. Here are the key components and functions of process management: Process Creation: The operating system is responsible for creating new processes. This can occur in several ways, such as when a user starts an application or when a parent process spawns a child process. During process creation, the operatin...
