Overview:

This paper describes a visualization tool for the Linux processor scheduling algorithm. The tool is developed for use by operating system learners to gain insight on the Linux scheduling algorithm. Through its graphical environment, a user selects a set of predefined processes as input to the tool. Each process selected possesses a specific characteristic geared toward effectively coercing the Linux scheduling algorithm to behave in a particular manner. In addition, the tool can be extended to serve as the basis for process performance measuring or optimization purpose.
