Scheduling is a form of decision making that involves allocating scarce resources to achieve some objective. The study of scheduling dates back to at least the 1950’s when operations research researchers studied problems of managing activities in a workshop. Computer systems researchers started studying scheduling in the 1960’s in the development of operating systems and time-critical applications.
