In recent years, distributed control systems(DCS) using fieldbus such as CAN have been applied to process systems but it is very difficult to design the DCS while guaranteeing the given end-to-end constraints such as precedence constraints, time constraints, and periods and priorities of tasks and messages. This paper presents a scheduling method to guarantee the given end-to-end constraints considering aperiodic, periodic and non-real-time message and task simultaneously. The presented scheduling method is the integrated one considering both tasks executed in each node and messages transmitted via the network and is designed to be applied to a general DCS that has multiple loops with several types of constraints, where each loop consists of sensor nodes with multiple sensors, actuator nodes with multiple actuators and controller nodes with multiple tasks.

This letter proposes a new distributed scheduling scheme combined with routing to support the quality of service of real-time applications in wireless mesh networks. Next, this letter drives average end-to-end delay of the proposed scheduling scheme that sequentially schedules the slots on a path. Finally, this letter simulates the time division multiple access network for performance comparison. From the simulation results, when the average number of hops is 2.02, 2.66, 4.1, 4.75, and 6.3, the proposed sequential scheduling scheme reduces the average end-to-end delay by about 28%, 10%, 17%, 27%, and 30%, respectively, compared to the conventional random scheduling scheme.

Beacon scheduling is considered to be one of the most significant challenges for energy-efficient Low-Rate Wireless Personal Area Network (LR-WPAN) multi-hop networks. The emerging new standard, IEEE802.15.4e, contains a distributed beacon scheduling functionality that utilizes a specific bitmap and multi-superframe structure. However, this new standard does not provide a critical recipe for superframe duration (SD) allocation in beacon scheduling. Therefore, in this paper, we first introduce three different SD allocation approaches, LSB first, MSB first, and random. Via experiments we show that IEEE802.15.4e DSME beacon scheduling performs differently for different SD allocation schemes. Based on our experimental results we propose an adaptive SD allocation (ASDA) algorithm. It utilizes a single indicator, a distributed neighboring slot incrementer (DNSI). The experimental results demonstrate that the ASDA has a superior performance over other methods from the viewpoint of resource efficiency.

Recently in the IoT(Internet of Things) environment, a data collection in real-time through device's sensor has increased with an emergence of various devices. Collected data from IoT environment shows a large scale, non-uniform generation cycle and atypical. For this reason, the distributed processing technique is required to analyze the IoT sensor data. However if you do not consider the optimal scheduling for data and the processor of IoT in a distributed processing environment complexity increase the amount in assigning a task, the user is difficult to guarantee the QoS(Quality of Service) for the sensor data. In this paper, we propose APQTA(Adaptive Priority Queue-driven Task Allocation method for sensor data processing) to efficiently process the sensor data generated by the IoT environment. APQTA is to separate the data into job and by applying the priority allocation scheduling based on the deadline to ensure that guarantee the QoS at the same time increasing the efficiency of the data processing.

Grid computing has been appeared for solving large-scaled data which are not solved by a single computer. Grid computing is a new generation platform which connects geographically distributed heterogeneous resources. However, gathering heterogeneous distributed resources produces many difficult problems. Especially. to assure resource reliability is one of the most critical problems. So, we propose a grid resource scheduling model using grid resource reliability measurement. We evaluate resource reliability based on resource status data and apply it to the grid scheduling model in DEVSJAVA modeling and simulation. This paper evaluates parameters such as resource utilization, job loss and average turn-around time and estimates experiment results of our model in comparison with those of existing scheduling models such as a random scheduling model and a round-robin scheduling model. These experiment results showed that the resource reliability measurement scheduling model provides efficient resource allocation and stable Job processing in comparison with a random scheduling model and a round-robin scheduling model.

The performance of Distributed Heterogeneous Computing System depends on the algorithm which schedules input DAG graph. Among various scheduling algorithms, list scheduling algorithm provides superior performance with low complexity. List scheduling consists of task prioritizing phase and processor allocation phase, but most studies only focus on task prioritizing phase. In this paper, we propose LIP policy which has the same complexity with traditional allocation policies but has superior performance. The performance of LIP has been observed by applying them to task prioritizing phase of traditional list scheduling algorithms, HCPT, HEFT, GCA, and PETS. The results show that LIP has better performance than insertion-based policy and non-insertion-based policy, which are traditional processor allocation policies.

In addition t improved availability, replication of data can enhance performance of distributed real-time transaction processing system by allowing transactions initiated at multiple node to be processed concurrently. To satisfy both the consistency and real-time constraints, it is necessary to integrate concurrency control and atomic commitment protocols with time-driven scheduling methods. blocking caused by existing concurrency control protocols is incompatible with time-driven scheduling because they cannot schedule transactions to meet given deadlines. To maintain consistency of replicated data and to provide a high degree of schedulability and predictability , the proposed time-driven scheduling methods integrate optimistic concurrency control protocols that minimize the duration of blocking and produce the serialization by reflecting the priority transactions. The atomicity of transactions is maintained to ensure successful commitment in distributed environment. Specific time-driven scheduling techniqueare discussed, together with an analysis of the performance of this scheduling.

Wireless LAN (WLAN) has greatly benefited from the introduction of various technologies, such as MAC protocol and scheduling algorithm. The majority of these technologies focus on fairness or service differentiation. However, it is difficult to use these technologies to provide many benefits to WLAN simultaneously because the current WLAN system only focuses on the provision of a single aspect of QoS. Unfortunately, multimedia applications require both service differentiation and fairness. Therefore, this paper combines Distributed Fair Scheduling (DFS) and Enhanced Distributed Coordinate Function (EDCF), to provide both fairness and service differentiation simultaneously. Furthermore, we show numerical analysis using Markov process. The simulation results demonstrate that F-EDCF outperforms the EDCF, in terms of throughput, fairness, and delay viewpoints.

We propose a randomized distributed scheduling algorithm which can achieve the optimal throughput under the general interference model. The proposed algorithm is analyzed to show an attractive performance in that it can return a maximal schedule with high probability and has a low time-complexity. We also provide the simulation results to validate performance analysis of our algorithm.

Efficient DAG scheduling is critical for achieving high performance in heterogeneous computing environments. Finding an optimal solution to the problem of scheduling an application modeled by a directed acyclic graph(DAG) onto a set of heterogeneous machines is known to be an NP-complete problem. In this paper we propose a new list scheduling algorithm, called the Heterogeneous Rank-Path Scheduling(HRPS) algorithm, to exploit all of a program's available parallelism in distributed heterogeneous computing system. The primary goal of HRPS is to minimize the schedule length of applications. The performance of the algorithm has been observed by its application to some practical DAGs, and by comparing it with other existing scheduling algorithm such as CPOP, HCPT and FLB in term of the schedule length. The comparison studies show that HRPS significantly outperform CPOP, HCPT and FLB in schedule length.
