The project will consist of creating a simulation of an operating system scheduler handling multiple threads or processes. The student will create a program that launches 6 - 10 worker threads simulating a processor bound, I/O bound and an intermediate of the two types. The program will schedule the tasks using the First-Come, First-Served (FCFS), Shortest Job First, and Round Robin scheduling algorithms. The Program should be written in Java and the Round Robin algorithm should employ the suspend() and resume() thread methods (yes I know the methods are depreciated. Included as an attachment is a sample). The student will take statistics and will write a paper describing what they found. Provide a very detailed description of your project, including the goals of the project, the approach used, what you did, as well as lessons learned.
