pre-emptive multitasking
(foldoc) | pre-emptive multitasking
A type of multitasking where
the scheduler can interrupt and suspend ("swap out") the
currently running task in order to start or continue running
("swap in") another task. The tasks under pre-emptive
multitasking can be written as though they were the only task
and the scheduler decides when to swap them. The scheduler
must ensure that when swapping tasks, sufficient state is
saved and restored that tasks do not interfere.
The length of time for which a process runs is known as its
"time slice" and may depend on the task's priority or its
use of resources such as memory and I/O.
OS/2, Unix and the Amiga use pre-emptive multitasking.
This contrasts with cooperative multitasking where each task
must include calls to allow it to be descheduled
periodically.

PRE-EMPTION
(bouvier) | PRE-EMPTION, intern. law. The right of preemption is the right of a nation
to detain the merchandise of strangers passing through her territories or
seas, in order to afford to her subjects the preference of purchase. 1 Chit.
Com. Law, 103; 1 Bl. Com. 287.
2. This right is sometimes regulated by treaty. In that which was made
between the United States and Great Britain, bearing date the 10th day of
November, 1794, ratified in 1795, it was agreed, art. 18, after mentioning
that the usual munitions of war, and also naval materials should be
confiscated as contraband, that "whereas the difficulty of agreeing on
precise cases in which alone provisions and other articles not generally
contraband may be regarded as such, renders it expedient to provide against
the inconveniences and misunderstandings which might thence arise. It is
further agreed that whenever any such articles so being contraband according
to the existing laws of nations, shall for that reason be seized, the same
shall not be confiscated, but the owners thereof shall be speedily and
completely indemnified; and the captors, or in their default, the government
under whose authority they act, shall pay to the masters or owners of such
vessel the full value of all articles, with a reasonable mercantile profit
thereon, together with the freight, and also the damages incident to such
detention." See Mann. Com. B. 3, c. 8.
3. By the laws of the United States the right given to settlers of
public lands, to purchase them in preference to others, is called the
preemption right. See act of L. April 29, 1830, 4 Sharsw. Cont. of Story, U.
S. 2212.
