Each subqueue is a queue managed a scheduling algorithm and that algorithm may be different for each subqueue in the queue.
Multilevel queue scheduling algorithms select a process from the "ready queue" by invoking the scheduling algorithm associated with the highest priority non empty subqueue.
When a process enters the "ready queue", a multilevel queue scheduling algorithm must have a method for deciding in which subqueue the process is to be placed.

Multilevel feedback queue-scheduling algorithm allows a process to move between queues.
Similarly, a process that wait too long in the lower-priority queue may be moved to a higher-priority queue may be moved to a highest-priority queue.
Processes in queue 2 run on a FCFS basis, only when queue 2 run on a FCFS basis, only when queue 0 and queue 1 are empty.`

Queue 1 has higher priority than queue 2.
If a process in a lower priority queue starts executing, and a process arrives in a higher priority queue, the lower priority process is pre-empted and the higher priority process begins processing.
Processes that are pre-empted before they have used up their allotted time slice for that queue are moved to the back of the queue.

Multilevel feedback queues require parameters to definite the number of queues, the scheduling algorithms for each queue, the criteria used to move processes between queues, etc. These algorithms are thus really sets of algorithms (e.g., the set of RR algorithms for all time slices, etc.).
Multilevel feedback queue and RR - RR is implemented, by default, as the general scheduling algorithm for the individual queues of MFQ.
Multilevel feedback queue and FCFS - The jobs in the individual queues of the MFQ can be scheduled in FCFS fashion by the dispatcher.

 CS690: Introduction
For example, the highest level queue could be real time, then kernel processes, then interactive users, etc. Queue assignment is usually, but not always, static, meaning that processes are permanently assigned to a priority class.
One variation of feedback queue scheduling is: If a process blocks for I/O before its quantum expires, it reenters the queueing network at the highest level.
Feedback queues are very general; by changing the number of queues, the quantum size for each queue, the rules that govern movement of processes among queues, etc., the algorithm can be tailored to many situations.

 Multilevel Feedback Queue - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In computer science, a multilevel feedback queue is a scheduling algorithm designed by Leonard Kleinrock in 1970.
At the base level queue the processes circulate in round robin fashion until they complete and leave the system.
In the multilevel feedback queue, a process is given just one chance to complete at a given queue level before it is forced down to a lower level queue.

RQ0 is the highest priority queue; RQ1 is the next highest; RQ2 is the lowest priority queue.
The goal is to promote a process to a higher-priority queue if it spends a certain amount of time waiting in its current queue for service.

 Multilevel Queue Scheduling
In this system, multiple ready-to-run queues operate with each one given its own scheduler algorithm and assigned to processes with certain characteristics.
If a process spends too much time waiting in a low priority queue, it may be moved to a higher priority queue -- this prevents starvation, and might better match its (bursty) CPU use to the queue since high priority queues are likely to use schedulers such as RR.
The definition of a multilevel feedback queue scheduler makes it the most general CPU scheduling algorithm, and therefore the most difficult to optimally tune.

 ACM Queue - Thread Scheduling in FreeBSD 5.2 - To help get a better handle on thread scheduling, we take a look at how ...
If multiple threads reside on a queue, the system runs them round robin—that is, it runs them in the order that they are found on the queue, with equal amounts of time allowed.
If a thread uses up the time quantum (or time slice) it is allowed, it is placed at the end of the queue from which it came, and the thread at the front of the queue is selected to run.
Threads are moved between run queues based on changes in their scheduling priority (hence the word feedback in the name multilevel feedback queue).

 Fedora Core 5 Release Notes
When a network driver notices a carrier loss, such as when the cable is pulled out, the driver stops the queue in front of the driver.
In the past, this stoppage caused the packets to be queued at the queueing discipline layer for an unbound period of time causing unexpected effects.
In order to prevent this effect, the core networking stack now refuses to queue any packets for a device that is operationally down, that is, has its queue disabled.

 Scheduling (computing) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The long-term, or admission, scheduler decides which jobs or processes are to be admitted to the ready queue; that is, when an attempt is made to execute a program, its admission to the set of currently executing processes is either authorized or delayed by the long-term scheduler.
Early Unix implementations use a scheduler with Multilevel Feedback Queues with round robin selections within each Feedback Queue.
In this system, processes begin in a high priority queue (giving a quick response time to new processes, such as those involved in a single mouse movement or keystroke), and as they spend more time within the system, they are preempted multiple times and placed in lower priority queues.

The process will spend the first 10 ms of each 12 ms period that it computes in the queue whose priority is 1.
The remaining 2 ms it wil spend in the queue whose priority is 2.
The subsequent I/O period of 10 ms is what causes the process to reenter the priority 1 level again.

While the processes are in the holding queue their priority will increase as the process ages.
When the priority of the process in the active queue is reached these will be moved to the active queue and removed from the holding queue.
Cons If a new incoming process is more important than a process already in the queue this will be delayed since the process already in the queue will receive better service for the time it has spent waiting in the queue.
