 **Question 20**: Because my group started working on Assignment 2 rather late, now it looks almost certain that we won’t be able to finish designing, and implementing any working Java program that is able to compute the average waiting times and average turnaround times for any given workload using all of the six scheduling algorithms as specified in Assignment 2. Yet we don’t want to completely give up on Assignment 2. Can you give us some advice on what we might consider doing for the programming part of Assignment 2 to at least get something done for the programming part, taking into consideration that we only have a few days left before the deadline to work on the assignment?
