Non Preemptive Priority Scheduling

A
/**
 * @file
 * @brief
 * [Non-Preemptive Priority
 * Scheduling](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scheduling_(computing))
 * is a scheduling algorithm that selects the tasks to execute based on
 * priority.
 *
 * @details
 * In this algorithm, processes are executed according to their
 * priority. The process with the highest priority is to be executed first and
 * so on. In this algorithm, a variable is maintained known as the time quantum.
 * The length of the time quantum is decided by the user. The process which is
 * being executed is interrupted after the expiration of the time quantum and
 * the next process with the highest priority is executed. This cycle of
 * interrupting the process after every time quantum and resuming the next
 * process with the highest priority continues until all the processes have
 * been executed.
