EDF is an optimal scheduling algorithm on preemptive uniprocessors, in the following sense: if a collection of independent jobs, each characterized by an arrival time, an execution requirement and a deadline, can be scheduled (by any algorithm) in a way that ensures all the jobs complete by their deadline, the EDF will schedule this collection ...
Some preemptive multitasking scheduling systems behave as run-to-completion schedulers in regard to scheduling tasks at one particular process priority level, at the same time as those processes still preempt other lower priority tasks and are themselves preempted by higher priority tasks.
Deadline-monotonic priority assignment is a priority assignment policy used with fixed-priority pre-emptive scheduling. With deadline-monotonic priority assignment, tasks are assigned priorities according to their deadlines. The task with the shortest deadline is assigned the highest priority. [1]
Dynamic priority scheduling is a type of scheduling algorithm in which the priorities are calculated during the execution of the system. The goal of dynamic priority scheduling is to adapt to dynamically changing progress and to form an optimal configuration in a self-sustained manner.
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.
This solution was used in Microsoft Windows [4] until it was replaced by AutoBoost a form of priority inheritance. [5] Avoid blocking Because priority inversion involves a low-priority task blocking a high-priority task, one way to avoid priority inversion is to avoid blocking, for example by using non-blocking algorithms such as read-copy-update.
Highest response ratio next (HRRN) scheduling is a non-preemptive discipline. It was developed by Brinch Hansen as modification of shortest job next or shortest job first (SJN or SJF) to mitigate the problem of process starvation. In HRRN, the next job is not that with the shortest estimated run time, but that with the highest response ratio ...
SJN is a non-preemptive algorithm. Shortest remaining time is a preemptive variant of SJN. Shortest job next is advantageous because of its simplicity and because it minimizes the average amount of time each process has to wait until its execution is complete.
