The notion of resource reservation for obtaining real-time scheduling guarantees and enforcement of resource usage has gained strong support in recent years. However, much work on...
In a distributed system or communication network tasks may need to be executed on more than one processor. For time-critical tasks, the timing constraints are typically given as e...
User constraints such as deadlines are important requirements that are not considered by existing cloud-based data processing environments such as Hadoop. In the current implementa...
In systems where customer service demands are only known probabilistically, there is very little to distinguish between jobs. Therefore, no universal optimum scheduling strategy o...

The Earliest Deadline First (EDF) scheduling algorithm is known to be suboptimal for meeting all deadlines under global scheduling on multiprocessor platforms. However, EDF is an a...
