In case of scheduling tasks with shared resources in multiprocessor systems, Global Earliest Deadline First (GEDF) algorithm, equally applied Earliest Deadline First (EDF) which runs scheduling with deadline criterion, makes schedulability decline because GEDF typically does not have a specific process in order to handle tasks with shared resources. In this paper, we propose Earliest Deadline First with Partitioning (EDFP) for tasks with shared resources which partitions a task into two kinds of subtasks that include critical sections to access to shared resources, gives their own deadline respectively and manages them. As a result of simulations, EDFP shows better performance than GEDF for tasks with shared resources since system load goes up and the number of processor increases.

In a VOD(Video-On-Demand) system, I/O performance and storage requirements are generally more important than computing capability, Due to the development of CPU tecnology, the gap between the performance of processors and desk speed are widening. Therefore, the disk system typically becomes the bohleneck ina VOD system. In order to allevte those effects from physical constramts, disk array system is used. The I/O performance of disk arrays can be improved by the capability of processors, I/O schefuling polcy, the number of member disks in the array, disk block size, block placemet method etc. In this paper, we considered the disk scheduling schemes including EDF( Earliest Deadine First), SCAN, SGAN-EDF, Round-robm. GSS(Grouped Sweeping scheme), and C-SCAN, LOOK, C-LOOK which are variations of SCAN Mamly focusing on those disk scheduling schemes, we performed the simulation in order to compare and eview the perionmance of disk arrays considening seveial related parameters under diverse environments and analyzed the effects of those parameters to the performance.

Energy consumption is an important design parameter for battery-operated embedded systems. Dynamic power management is one of the most well-known low-power design techniques. This paper proposes an online realtime scheduling algorithm, which we call energy-aware realtime scheduling using slack stealing (EARSS). The proposed algorithm gives the highest priority to the task with the largest degree of device overlap when the slack time exists. Scheduling result enables an efficient power management by reducing the number of state transitions. Experimental results show that the proposed algorithm can save the energy by 23% on average compared to the DPM-enabled system scheduled by the EDF algorithm.

센서 네트워크는 여러 분야에서 활용할 수 있는 기술이다. 센서 노드가 외부에서 채취한 데이터를 실시간으로 사용자에게 전달하는 것은 매우 중요하다. UC 버클리에서 개발된 TinyOS는 센서 노드에서 동작하는 운영체제 중 가장 많이 사용되고 있다. TinyOS는 Event-driven 방식이며 Component 기반의 센서 네트워크 운영체제이다. 기본적으로 비선점 방식의 스케줄러를 사용함으로써 TinyOS의 실시간성을 보장하기 어렵다. 최근 연구에서 TinyOS의 빠른 반응성을 위해 Priority Level Scheduler라는 선점 기능이 제안되었다. 여기서 본 논문은 TinyOS의 실시간성의 보장을 위해 Priority Level Scheduler에 EDF(Earliest Deadline First)를 적용한 선점형 EDF 스케줄링 방식을 제안하고자 한다.

경성 실시간 시스템(Hard Real-Time System)어서는 주기 태스크들의 엄격한 마감시간(Deadline) 보장이 시스템의 성능을 좌우한다. 본 논문에서는 CPU의 이용률(Utilization)이 높아 비율단조 정책으로는 마감시간을 보장 할 수 없는 주기 태스크들을 위해 확장된 스케줄 가능성 검사를 통해 수행할 태스크들의 공통 주기(L.C.M : Least Common Multiple)내에서 EDF(Earliest-Deadline First) 정책을 기반으로 마감시간 보장 수행패턴(Feasible Pattern)을 찾고, 이를 참조하여 우선순위를 고려하지 않고 태스크들을 강제 수행할 수 있게 하는 비율단조 기반의 스케쥴링 기법을 제안한다. EDF를 기반으로 생성된 패턴은 EDF 정책의 특성에 따라 CPU의 이용률을 100% 까지 가능하게 하며 패턴을 참조하여 강제 수행함으로써 EDF 정책이 갖는 실행시간 스케쥴링 오버헤드를 없앨 수 있다.

다중처리기 상에서 실시간 태스크 스케줄링에 대한 연구가 현재 많이 수행되고 있지만, 주로 Pfair(P-fairness)와 EDF(Earliest Deadline First) 알고리즘에 대한 연구이다. Pfair는 이론적인 연구에 초점을 두고 있으며, EDF는 처리기들을 효율적으로 이용하지 못하는 문제점을 가지고 있다. 본 논문에서는 다중처리기 상의 주기적인 실시간 태스크 집합을 대상으로, LLA(Least Laxity Algorithm) 알고리즘이 높은 스케줄링 가능성(schedulability)을 가짐을 먼저 보인다. 다음으로 기존 알고리즘들의 문제점을 보완하기 위해 EDF와 LLA를 결합한 ED/LL(Earliest Deadline/Least Laxity)이라는 알고리즘을 제시한다. ED/LL은 LLA보다 문맥교환 횟수는 적고 EDF보다 스케줄링 가능성이 높으며, 구현 오버헤드도 크지 않다.

Most of the tasks in wireless sensor networks (WSN) are requested to run in a real-time way. Neither EDF nor FIFO can ensure real-time scheduling in WSN. A real-time scheduling strategy (RTS) is proposed in this paper. All tasks are divided into two layers and endued diverse priorities. RTS utilizes a preemptive way to ensure hard real-time scheduling. The experimental results indicate that RTS has a good performance both in communication throughput and over-load.

The Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) is one of the most precious inventions of Internet of things (IOT). UAV faces the necessity to charge battery or replace battery from the charging stations during or between services. We propose scheduling algorithms for drone power charging (SADPC). The basic idea of algorithm is considering both a deadline (for increasing deadline miss ratio) and a charging time (for decreasing waiting time) to decide priority on charging station among drones. Our simulation results show that our power charging algorithm for drones are efficient in terms of the deadline miss ratio as well as the waiting time in general in compare to other conventional algorithms (EDF or SJF). Also, we can choose proper algorithms for battery charge scheduling and charge ready battery allocation according to system parameters and user requirements based on our simulation.

For battery based real-time embedded systems, high performance to meet their real-time constraints and energy efficiency to extend battery life are both essential. Real-Time Dynamic Voltage Scaling (RT-DVS) has been a key technique to satisfy both requirements. In this paper, we present an efficient RT-DVS algorithm called EccEDF that is designed based on ccEDF. The proposed algorithm can precisely calculate the maximum unused utilization with consideration of the elapsed time while keeping the structural simplicity of ccEDF, which overlooked the time needed to run the task in calculating the available slack. The maximum unused utilization can be calculated by dividing remaining execution time($C_i-cc_i$) by remaining time($P_i-E_i$) on completion of the task and it is proved using Fluid scheduling model. We also show that the algorithm outperforms ccEDF in practical applications which is modelled using a PXA250 and a 0.28V-to-1.2V wide-operating-range IA-32 processor model.
