Processor sharing
Form of resource sharing for tasks in computing
Processor sharing or egalitarian processor sharing is a service policy where the customers, clients or jobs are all served simultaneously, each receiving an equal fraction of the service capacity available. In such a system all jobs start service immediately (there is no queueing).
The processor sharing algorithm "emerged as an idealisation of round-robin scheduling algorithms in time-shared computer systems".[1][2]
