What is the primary disadvantage of the shortest processing time dispatch rule? Is this a problem if there can be no new jobs arriving after the sequence is set?
What will be an ideal response?
As new jobs arrive, new short-duration jobs will push back existing long-duration jobs in priority. If newly arriving jobs must wait for a new sequence to be built, this is less problematic.
