Question

What is the ready state of a process? Select one: a. When process is scheduled to run after some execution b. None of the mentioned c. When process is using the cpu d. When process is unable to run until some task has been completed

Answer 1

The ready state of a process is "When process is scheduled to run after some execution."

Reason: When process is started, it directly enters into the ready state, there it waits for the CPU to be assigned. The process which are ready for execution and resides in the main memory are called as ready state processes.  A ready state process is runable but temporarily  stopped running to let other processes run.

Answer 2

Answer:

When a process is scheduled to run after some execution, it is in the ready state.

Explanation:

• The process is in the ready state and is awaiting the short term scheduler's assignment of a processor so it can start running. This state follows the process's new state right away.

• The reason behind this is that as soon as a process is launched, it immediately enters the ready state and waits for the CPU to be assigned.
• Processes in the main memory that are prepared for execution are referred to as ready state processes.
• A process in the ready state is one that can be started but has temporarily stopped so that other processes can run.
