1) Solaris 2 Uses priority-based process scheduling
2) Windows 2000 uses a priority-based preemptive scheduling algorithm
3) Linux provides two separate process-scheduling algorithms: one is designed for time-sharing processes for fair preemptive scheduling among multiple processes; the other, designed for real-time tasks
     a) For processes in the time-sharing class, Linux uses a prioritized credit-based algorithm
     b) Real-time scheduling: Linux implements two real-time scheduling classes, namely FCFS (First come first serve) and RR (Round Robin)
