The C-SCAN (Circular SCAN) algorithm is a disk scheduling algorithm that moves the disk arm in one direction servicing requests until it reaches the end, then jumps back to the beginning to continue servicing in the same direction. This approach provides a more uniform wait time compared to traditional SCAN by treating the disk as a circular list, which can be particularly beneficial for systems with heavy I/O operations.
