Process scheduling algorithms are used for better utilization of CPU. The number of processes arriving to the CPU at a time comes in mass volume which causes a long waiting queue. In Multilevel feedback queue scheduling, the scheduler moves from one queue to another in order to perform the processing follow the transition mechanism. This paper analysed a general transition scenario for the functioning of CPU scheduler in multilevel queue with feedback mechanism. We proposed a Markov chain model to analyze this transition phenomenon with a general class of scheduling scheme. Simulation study is performed to evaluate the comparative study with the help of varying values of a and d in a mathematical model.
