  The Scheduling Invariant ... All Processes Are Scheduled In A Round-Robin
With Processes Of The Same Priority (Alternating Ready-Current) And Are
{Removed,Added} {From/To} The Ready-Current List When {Blocked,Unblocked}.
  Processes With A Lower Priority Are Scheduled Only When All Higher Priority
Processes Are Blocked.  Think It Needs A Night'S Sleep - Will Make Sense In
The Morning.
Thanks For The Pointer, Should Be Enough Of A Hint.
