  • This paper proposes an integration of the ED-H scheduling algorithm, known for optimal real-time scheduling, with the LoRaEnergySim simulator. This integration facilitates the simulation of interactions between real-time scheduling algorithms for tasks with time constraints in Class-A LoRaWAN Class-A devices using a super-capacitor-based energy harvesting system. The time and energy characteristics of LoRaWAN status and state transitions are extracted in a log format, and the task model is structured to suit the time-slot-based ED-H scheduling algorithm. The algorithm is extended to perform tasks while satisfying time constraints based on CPU executions. To evaluate the proposed approach, the ED-H scheduling algorithm is executed on a set of tasks with varying time and energy characteristics and CPU occupancy rates ranging from 10% to 90%, under the same conditions as the LoRaEnergySim simulation results for packet transmission and reception. The experimental results confirmed the applicability of co-simulation by demonstrating that tasks are prioritized based on urgency without depleting the supercapacitor's energy to satisfy time constraints, depending on the scheduling algorithm.

  • In recent years, embedded systems such as cellular phones, Portable Multimedia Player, intelligent appliance, automobile engine control are reshaping the way people live, work, and play. Thereby, services application to guarantee various requirements of users become increasingly sophisticated and complicated, such embedded computing platforms use real-time operating systems (RTOSs) with time determinism. These RTOSs must not only provide predictable services but must also be efficient and small in size. Kernel services should also be deterministic by specifying how long each service call will take to execute. Having this information allows the application designers to better plan their real-time application software so as not to miss the deadline of each task. In this paper, we present the complete generalized real-time scheduling algorithm using multi-dimensional methodology to determine the highest priority in the ready list with 2r levels of priorities in a constant time without additional memory overhead.

  • Due to multiple hops, mobility and time-varying channel, supporting delay sensitive real-time traffic in wireless local area network-based (WLAN) mesh networks is a challenging task. In particular for real-time traffic subject to medium access control (MAC) layer control overhead, such as preamble, carrier sense waiting time and the random backoff period, the performance of real-time flows will be degraded greatly. In order to support real-time traffic, an efficient adaptive packet scheduling (APS) scheme is proposed, which aims to improve the system performance by guaranteeing inter-class, intra-class service differentiation and adaptively adjusting the packet length. APS classifies incoming packets by the IEEE 802.11e access class and then queued into a suitable buffer queue. APS employs strict priority service discipline for resource allocation among different service classes to achieve inter-class fairness. By estimating the received signal to interference plus noise ratio (SINR) per bit and current link condition, APS is able to calculate the optimized packet length with bi-dimensional markov MAC model to improve system performance. To achieve the fairness of intra-class, APS also takes maximum tolerable packet delay, transmission requests, and average allocation transmission into consideration to allocate transmission opportunity to the corresponding traffic. Detailed simulation results and comparison with IEEE 802.11e enhanced distributed channel access (EDCA) scheme show that the proposed APS scheme is able to effectively provide inter-class and intra-class differentiate services and improve QoS for real-time traffic in terms of throughput, end-to-end delay, packet loss rate and fairness.

  • Since the TinyOS incorporating a non-preemptive task scheduling policy uses a FIFO (First-In First-Out) queue, a task with the highest priority cannot preempt a task with lower priority before the task with lower priority must run to completion. Therefore, the non-preemptive TinyOS cannot guarantee the completion of real-time user tasks within their deadlines. Additionally, the non-preemptive TinyOS needs to meet the deadlines of user tasks as well as those of TinyOS platform tasks called by user tasks in order to guarantee the deadlines of the real-time services requested by user tasks. In this paper, we present a group-based real-time scheduling technique that makes it possible to guarantee the deadlines of real-time user tasks in the TinyOS incorporating a non-preemptive task scheduling policy. The proposed technique groups together a given user task and TinyOS platform tasks called and activated by the user task, and then schedule them as a virtual big task. A case study shows that the proposed technique yields efficient performance in terms of guaranteeing the completion of user tasks within their deadlines and aiming to provide them with good average response time, while maintaining the compatibility of the existing non-preemptive TinyOS platform.

  • Recently, wireless networks have been pursuing multimedia data service as voice, data, image, video and various form of data according to development of information communication technology. It guarantees cell delivery delay of real time data in efficient real time multimedia data transfer. Also, it minimizes cell loss rate of non-real time multimedia data. In the wireless ATM, there are based on Asynchronous Transfer Mode(ATM). It implies that there are various service with difficult transmission rates and qualities in the wireless communication network. As a result, it is important to find out the ways to guarantee the Quality of Service(QoS) for each kind of traffic in wireless network. In this thesis, we propose an improved TCRM scheduling algorithms for transmission real-time multimedia data service in wireless ATM Networks. We appear real time multimedia scheduling policy that apply each different method to uplink and downlik to wireless ATM network. It can guarantee QoS requirements for each real time data and non-real time data. It also deals the fairness problem for sharing the scarce wireless resources. We solve fault of TCRM as inefficient problem of non-real data by using arbitrary transmission speed and RB(Reservation Buffer) through VC(Virtual Control) and BS(Base Station).

  • In the wireless communication systems, the demand of multimedia services is also increased. Unlike typical data packets, realtime service such as VoIP packets have delay bound and low loss rate requirement. In this paper we propose a new scheduling algorithm that be able to allocate resources to the different kinds of services such as VoIP and data packet. The proposed algorithm considers both time delay and channel condition toe determine the priority. Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm works more efficiently than the conventional algorithms.

  • Manufacturing environments in the real world are subject to many sources of change and uncertainty, such as new job releases, job cancellations, a chance in the processing time or start time of some operation. Thus, the realistic scheduling method should Properly reflect these dynamic environment. Based on the release times of jobs, JSSP (Job Shoe Scheduling Problem) can be classified as static and dynamic scheduling problem. In this research, we mainly consider the dynamic JSSP with continually arriving jobs. The goal of this research is to develop an efficient scheduling method based on GA (Genetic Algorithm) to address dynamic JSSP. we designed scheduling method based on SGA (Sing1e Genetic Algorithm) and PGA (Parallel Genetic Algorithm) The scheduling method based on GA is extended to address dynamic JSSP. Then, This algorithms are tested for scheduling and rescheduling in dynamic JSSP. The results is compared with dispatching rule. In comparison to dispatching rule, the GA approach produces better scheduling performance.

  • A bus scheduling problem with multiple objective functions and travel time constraint is to determine the allocation of buses to customer service requests minimizing the number of buses and travel costs under the travel time restriction for each bus. For the scheduling, we first represent the scheduling problem using a graph and develop a hierarchical approach. Second, we develop a mathematical model based algorithm for the scheduling problem including heuristic methods. We tested the performance of the algorithm on instances with real data. As a result, the total number of buses and travel costs are reduced over about 10% comparing with that of current practice at the company.

  • To satisfy the requirements of the real-time Internet services, queue management and scheduling schemes should be enhanced to accommodate the delay and jitter characteristic of them. Although the existing queue management schemes can address the congestion problems of TCP flows, they have some problems in supporting real-time services. That is, they show performance degradation when burst traffics are continuously going into the system after the queue is occupied at a predefined threshold level. In addition, under the congestion state, they show large jitter, which is not a desirable phenomenon for real-time transmissions. To resolve these problems, we propose a SDRED (State Dependent Random Early Detection) and dynamic scheduling scheme that can improve delay and jitter performances by adjusting RED parameters such as ma $x_{th}$ and $w_{q}$ according to the queue status. The SDRED is designed to adapt to the current traffic situation by adjusting the max,$_{th}$ and $w_{q}$ to four different levels. From the simulation results, we show that the SDRED decreases packet delays in a queue and has more stable jitter characteristics than the existing RED, BLUE, ARED and DSRED schemes.mes.mes.
