This paper addresses a scheduling scheme for Flexible Flow Shop(FFS) in the case that a factory is a sub-plant of an electronic device manufacturing plant. Under this environment, job orders for the sub-plants in the production route are generated together with job processing time bucket when the customer places orders for final product. The processing time bucket for each job is a duration from possible release date to permissible due date. A sub-plant modeled FFS should schedule these jobs orders within time bucket. Viewing a Printed Circuit Board(PCB) assembly line as a FFS, the developed scheme schedules an incoming order along with the orders already placed on the scheduled. The scheme consists of the four steps, 1)assigning operation release date and due date to each work cells in the FFS, 2)job grouping, 3)dispatching and 4)machine allocation. Since the FFS scheduling problem is NP-complete, the logics used are heuristic. Using a real case, we tested the scheme and compared it with the John's algorithm and other dispatching rules.

In a distributed real-time control system, it is essential to confirm the timing behavior of all tasks because these tasks of each real-time controller have to finish their processes within the specified time intervals called a deadline. In order to satisfy this objective, the timing analysis of a distributed real-time system such as shcedulability test must be performed during the system design phase. In this study, a simple application of CAN fur a vehicle body network system is formulated to apply to a holistic scheduling analysis, and the worst-case execution time (WCET) and the worst-case end-to-end response time (WCRT) are evaluated in the point of holistic system view.

This paper proposes an analysis method to check the schedulability of a set of sporadic tasks under earliest deadline first (EDF) scheduler. The sporadic task model consists of subtasks with precedence constraints, arbitrary arrival times and deadlines. In order to determine the schedulability, we present an approach to find exact worst case response time (WCRT) of subtatsks. With the technique presented in this paper, we exploit the precedence relations between subtasks in an accurate way while taking advantage of the deadline of different subtasks. Another nice feature of our approach is that it avoids calculation time overhead by exploiting the concept of deadline busy period. Experimental results show that this consideration leads to a significant improvement compared with existing work.

In this paper, an efficient Adaptive quality-of-service (QoS) traffic control scheme with priority scheduling is proposed for the multimedia traffic transmission over wireless access networks. The objective of the proposed adaptive QoS control (AQC) scheme is to realize end-to-end QoS, to be scalable without the excess signaling process, and to adapt dynamically to the network traffic state according to traffic flow characteristics. Here, the reservation scheme can be used over the wireless access network in order to get the per-flow guarantees necessary for implementation of some kinds of multimedia applications. The AQC model is based on both differentiated service model with different lier hop behaviors and priority scheduling one. It consists of several various routers, access points, and bandwidth broker and adopts the IEEE 802.1 le wireless radio technique for wireless access interface. The AQC scheme includes queue management and packet scheduler to transmit class-based packets with different per hop behaviors (PHBs). Simulation results demonstrate effectiveness of the proposed AQC scheme.

This paper presents development of program for generator maintenance scheduling. The maintenance scheduling of generating units is a dynamic discrete combinatorial optimization problem with constraints to determine the optimal maintenance periods of each generating units for a given planning periods. The developed program is designed so as to provide the maintenance schedule satisfying the operating reserve margin levelization and the procurement of proper reliability. In order to verify the effectiveness of the developed program, the numerical study has been performed with the practical data in 2005.

Recently, people have been interested in new intelligent transport system (ITS) architecture, so that vehicular networks are becoming an attractive research area. When vehicles try to access data through a roadside unit (RSU), data scheduling of RSU needs to improve service ratio due to limited bandwidth and service time. In this paper, we propose a service scheduling algorithm based on transmission delays and service deadlines of vehicles in order to improve the service ratio. In our algorithm, we assume the promiscuous operation of wireless nodes and it can make a single transmission of RSU serve multiple requests. We evaluated the performance of our scheme via simulations, and results show that our schemes have better performance than existing algorithms.

In this paper, we present a novel scheduling algorithm using the weighted interval graph. An interval graph is constructed, where an interval is a time frame of each operation. And for each operation type, we look for the maximum clique of the interval graph: the number of nodes of the maximum clique represents the number of operation that are executed concurrently. In order to minimize resource cost. we select the operation type to reduce the number of nodes of a maximum clique. For the selected operation type, an operation selected by selection rule is moved to decrease the number of nodes of a maximum clique. A selected operation among unscheduled operations is moved repeatly and assigned to a control step consequently. The proposed algorithm is applied to the pipeline and the nonpipeline data path synthesis. The experiment for examples shows the efficiency of the proposed scheduling algorithm.

Scheduling technology is one of the most important elements required to support the Qos(quality of service) in the Internet and a lot of scheduling algorithms have been developed. However, most of there algorithms are not flexible in the distribution of the excess bandwidth. In order to improve the weakness of existing algorithms, DGPS(decoupled generalized processor sharing)has suggested recently. But, the DGPS algorithm is complex to implement and difficult to apply to the existing algorithms. In this paper, we propose a scheduling algorithm for distribution of the excess bandwidth which improves the implementation complexity of the DGPS and easy to be applied to ordinary algorithms.

In this paper, we propose a new algorithm for task scheduling consisting of subtask partitioning and subtask priority scheduling steps in order to keep the peak power under the system specification. The subtask partitioning stepis performed to minimize the idle operation time for processors by dividing a task into multiple subtasks using the least square method developed with power consumption pattern of tasks. In the subtask priority scheduling step, a priority is assigned to a subtask based on the power requirement and the power variation of subtask so that the peak power violation can be minimized and the task can be completed within the execution time deadline.

In order to satisfy the requirement for various applications in an electronic device, many dynamically reconfigurable systems such as FPGAs have been used recently. This paper presents a pipelined scheduling for dynamically reconfigurable systems based on FPGAs. For reconfigurable systems conventional schedulings have reduced processing time by minimizing the number of reconfigurations. However, they are not effective enough for applications including many iterative processes such as digital signal processing. Our approach has been able to increase throughput of iterative applications on dynamically reconfigurable systems by using pipelined scheduling.
