📖 1. Process States

🔑 Key Concepts & Definitions

  • Process State: The current status of a process within its lifecycle, indicating what the process is doing at any moment.
  • New State: The process is being created but has not yet been admitted to the ready queue.
  • Ready State: The process is prepared to run and waiting for CPU allocation.
  • Running State: The process is actively executing instructions on the CPU.
  • Waiting (Blocked) State: The process is waiting for an event, such as I/O completion or resource availability.
  • Terminated (Exit) State: The process has finished execution and is being removed from the system.
