In computer science, rate-monotonic scheduling (RMS) [1] is a priority assignment algorithm used in real-time operating systems (RTOS) with a static-priority scheduling class. [2] The static priorities are assigned according to the cycle duration of the job, so a shorter cycle duration results in a higher job priority.
Some commonly used RTOS scheduling algorithms are: [5] Cooperative scheduling; Preemptive scheduling. Rate-monotonic scheduling; Round-robin scheduling; Fixed-priority pre-emptive scheduling, an implementation of preemptive time slicing; Fixed-Priority Scheduling with Deferred Preemption; Fixed-Priority Non-preemptive Scheduling
However, when comparing the maximum usage of an optimal scheduling under fixed priority (with the priority of each thread given by the rate-monotonic scheduling), the EDF can reach 100% while the theoretical maximum value for rate-monotonic scheduling is around 69%.
Higher schedulable utilization means higher utilization of resource and the better the algorithm. In preemptible scheduling, dynamic priority scheduling such as earliest deadline first (EDF) provides the optimal schedulable utilization of 1 in contrast to less than 0.69 with fixed priority scheduling such as rate-monotonic (RM).

This scheduling algorithm first selects those processes that have the smallest "slack time". Slack time is defined as the temporal difference between the deadline, the ready time and the run time. More formally, the slack time s {\displaystyle s} for a process is defined as:
In computer science, priority inversion is a scenario in scheduling in which a high-priority task is indirectly superseded by a lower-priority task, effectively inverting the assigned priorities of the tasks. This violates the priority model that high-priority tasks can only be prevented from running by higher-priority tasks.
Fixed-priority preemptive scheduling is a scheduling system commonly used in real-time systems. [1] With fixed priority preemptive scheduling, the scheduler ensures that at any given time, the processor executes the highest priority task of all those tasks that are currently ready to execute.
The objective of the stochastic scheduling problems can be regular objectives such as minimizing the total flowtime, the makespan, or the total tardiness cost of missing the due dates; or can be irregular objectives such as minimizing both earliness and tardiness costs of completing the jobs, or the total cost of scheduling tasks under likely arrival of a disastrous event such as a severe typhoon.
