Pre-Emptive Scheduling and the Real-Time Operating System (RTOS) One of the biggest differentiators between the scheduling algorithms implemented within embedded OSs is whether the algorithm ...

Short Term vs. Long Term Scheduling. Most computer operating systems must multi-task. They use a scheduling algorithm that decides which of the many processes can be run at any given time. It puts ...

This paper presents two algorithms for scheduling a set of jobs with multiple priorities on non-homogeneous, parallel machines. The application of interest involves the tracking and data relay ...
