A multiprocessor scheduling scheme is presented for supporting hierarchical containers that encapsulate sporadic soft and hard real-time tasks. In this scheme, each container is a...
In this paper we study the global scheduling of periodic task systems upon uniform multiprocessor platforms. We first show two very general properties which are wellknown for uni...
A system based on a hierarchical scheduler is a system in which the processor is shared between several collaborative schedulers. Such schedulers exist since 1960 and they are bec...
We present several locking synchronization protocols and associated schedulability conditions for Pfair-scheduled multiprocessor systems. We focus on two classes of protocols. The...
