- Cluster based multiprocessor scheduling can be seen as a hybrid approach combining benefits of both partitioned and global scheduling. Virtual clustering further enhances it by providing dynamic cluster resource allocation and applying hierarchical scheduling techniques. Over the years, the study of virtual cluster scheduling has been limited to theoretical analysis. In this paper, we present our initial ideas about implementing virtual cluster scheduling in Linux. The purpose of this implementation is twofold: (i) we would like to demonstrate the feasibility of its implementation in an operating system, without modifying the kernel source code, (ii) we present practical insights on the overhead of implementing this framework.

Limited preemptive scheduling of mixed time-triggered and event-triggered tasks
- 2013

Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- Many embedded systems have complex timing constraints and, at the same time, have flexibility requirements which prohibit offline planning of the entire system. To support a mixture of time-triggered and event-triggered tasks, some industrial systems deploy a table-driven dispatcher for time-triggered tasks complemented with a preemptive scheduler to allocate the free time slots to event-driven tasks. Contrary to fully preemptive scheduling, limiting the preemptions of tasks to fixed preemptions points may reduce memory requirements and it alleviates the preemption costs in the system. We revisit slotshifting, which at run time mixes time-triggered and event-triggered tasks in a preemptive EDF schedule. In this paper, we extend slotshifting with limited-preemptive execution of event-triggered tasks. We present a synchronization protocol to arbitrate the executions of non-preemptive regions, so that time-triggered tasks keep meeting their timing constraints implicitly. Furthermore, we investigate how to disable preemptions of event-triggered tasks during the execution of the offline-scheduled time-triggered tasks, while keeping the feature of slotshifting to reallocate their slots of execution dynamically at run time.
