2 (a) Consider a system running 10 I/O bound task and one CPU bound task. Assume that I/O bound issues an I/O operation once for every milisecond of CPU computing and that each I/O operation 10 miliseconds to complete. Also assume that the context switching overhead is 0, 1 milisecond and that all processes are long running task. what is the CPU utilization for round robin schedular when :
(i) the time quantum is 1 milisecond
(ii) the time quantum is 10 miliseconds?(10 marks)
