The policy is the set of rules or the strategy to be used by a particular level of scheduler. The mechanism is the actual system routine(s) that implement the policy. The policy can sometimes appear to be a loosely stated qualitative objective such as “favor I/O-bound processes.”The mechanism is normally a highly specific algorithm with precise quantitative values.
