Dear All, I try to use the signal to suspend/resume processes for a user-level time-sharing scheduling code. I have some newbies questions and appreciate some of you could help me out this. Thanks very much in advance: When a process is suspened manually by signal, what is it like other than stoping execution? Is is stil in memory or swapped out? What is a suspended process to the scheduler? Is is true that the scheduler will never consider it before being assumed? What is the difference between a suspended process with a sleeping process(like calling sleep syscall), is a sleeping process in memory or swapped? Thanks very much for help this newbies questions.
