In this paper we present a simple approach to the joint queue length distribution in the nonpreemptive priority M/G/1 queue. Without using the supplementary variable technique, we derive the joint probability generating function of the stationary queue length at arbitrary time.

Most of the real-time scheduling algorithms assume that all tasks are either preemptive or nonpreemptive. In this paper, we present a real-time scheduling algorithm for the more generalized task model in which each task contains both preemptive and nonpreemptive subtasks in a single processor environment. If the task set is found to be scheduling by the method of Harbour et al, it is also found to be scheduling by the proposed method. A simulation is used ti compare two methods and the result shows the maximum of 45% difference between them in their effectiveness.

The basic real-time scheduling algorithms based on RM or EDF approaches assume that the tasks are preemptive, but the tasks may contain nonpreemptive sections in many cases. Also the existing scheduling algorithm for reducing the power consumption of the processor is based on the task utilizations and determines the processor speed $S_H$ or $S_L$ according to the existence of the blocking intervals. In this algorithm, the $S_H$ interval that operates in high speed is the interval during which the priority inversion by blocking occurs, and the length of this interval is set to the task deadline that includes the blocking intervals. In this paper, we propose an improved algorithm that can reduce the power consumption ratio by shortening the length of the $S_H$ interval. The simulation shows that the power consumption ratio of the proposed algorithm is reduced as much as 13% compared to the existing one.

In this Paper, we analyzed the HIPERLAN(Hlgh PErformance Radio LAN) MAC(Medium Access Control) protocol, which was a standard for Wireless LANs defined by ETSI. We analyzed mathematically the elimination phase and the yield phase of the channel contention phase of CAC(Channel Access Control) layer in the infinite population model of the HIPERLAN using EY-NPMA(Elimination Yield-Nonpreemptive Priority Multiple Access)protocol. Also we analyzed the probability of successful transmission in the transmission phase. And, we proved results of a mathematical analysis by the simulation of HIPERLAN MAC protocol.

This paper is concerned with determining a minisum location with jockeying for a server on a probabilistic network in which each customer type enters the network system permitting with jockeying through a specified node and a nonpreemptive service policy is in effect. An algorithm to locate a single Fixed Priority Queue Median with Jockeying (FPQMJ) on acyclic networks is developed by using the Generalized Benders' Decomposition technique. The results are then extended to a general network.

This paper considers a single machine nonpreemptive scheduling problem with a given common due date. In the problem, the optimal job sequence is sought to minimize the sum of earliness/tardiness and flow time measures in the situation where all jobs are available at time zero, and weights per unit length of earliness/tardiness and flow time are V and W, respectively. Some dominant solution properties are characterized to deriva both an optimal starting time for an arbitrary sequence and sequence improvement rules. The optimal schedule is found to the case W .geq. V/. By the way, it is difficult to find the optimal schedule for the case W < V. Therefore, the derived properties are put on together to construct a heuristic solution algorithm for the case W < V, and its effectiveness is rated at the mean relative error of about 3% on randomly generated numerical problems.

We consider a nonpreemptive single-machine scheduling problem to minimize the mean squared deviation(MSD) of job completion times about a common due date d with a maximum tardiness constraint, i.e., maximum tardiness is less than or equal to the given allowable amount, .DELTA.(MSD/T$_{max}$ problem). We classify the .DELTA.-unconstrained cases in the MSD/T$_{max}$ problem. We provide bounds to discern each case for the problem. It is also shown that the .DELTA.-unconstrained MSD/T$_{max}$ problem is equivalent to the unconstrained MSD problem and the tightly .DELTA.-constrained MSD/T$_{max}$ problem with n jobs and a maximum allowable tardiness .DELTA. can be converted into the constrained MSD problem with a common due date .DELTA. and n-1 jobs. Finally, the solution procedure for MSD/T$_{max}$ problem is provided. provided.

We consider a priority-based multiclass queue with probabilistic feed-back. There are J service stations. Each customer belongs to one of the several priority classes, and the customers of each class arrive at each station in a Poisson process. A single server serves queued customers on a priority basis with a nonpreemptive scheduling discipline. The customers who complete their services feed back to the system instantaneously and join one of the queues of the stations or depart from the system according to a given probability. In this paper, we propose a new method to simplify the analysis of these queueing systems. By the analysis of busy periods and regenerative processes, we clarify the underlying system structure, and systematically obtain the mean for the sojourn time, i.e., the time from the arrival to the departure from the system, of a customer at every station. The mean for the number of customers queued in each station at an arbitrary time is also obtained simultaneously.

This paper describes scheduling algorithms of the UNIX operating system and shows an analytical approach to approximate the average conditional response time for a process in the UNIX operating system. The average conditional response time is the average time between the submittal of a process requiring a certain amount of the CPU time and the completion of the process. The process scheduling algorithms in thr UNIX system are based on the priority service disciplines. That is, the behavior of a process is governed by the UNIX process schuduling algorithms that (ⅰ) the time-shared computer usage is obtained by allotting each request a quantum until it completes its required CPU time, (ⅱ) the nonpreemptive switching in system mode and the preemptive switching in user mode are applied to determine the quantum, (ⅲ) the first-come-first-serve discipline is applied within the same priority level, and (ⅳ) after completing an allotted quantum the process is placed at the end of either the runnable queue corresponding to its priority or the disk queue where it sleeps. These process scheduling algorithms create the round-robin effect in user mode. Using the round-robin effect and the preemptive switching, we approximate a process delay in user mode. Using the nonpreemptive switching, we approximate a process delay in system mode. We also consider a process delay due to the disk input and output operations. The average conditional response time is then obtained by approximating the total process delay. The results show an excellent response time for the processes requiring system time at the expense of the processes requiring user time.
