Description
Summary:	This article discusses operating systems (OS) scheduling with a look at three current papers discussing this topic selected and reviewed by Kostis Kaffes. The cited papers detail OS scheduling in regards to performance, extensibility, and policy choice with a look at the trade off between latency and utilization in scheduling, implementation of arbitrary scheduling policies, and policy choice on an application-by-application basis.
