英文摘要：

Strategies that artificially tighten high-criticality task deadlines in low-criticality behaviors have been successfully employed for scheduling mixed-criticality systems. Although efficient scheduling algorithms have been developed for implicit deadline task systems, the same is not true for more general sporadic tasks. In this paper we develop a new demand-based schedulability test for such general mixed-criticality task systems, in which we collectively bound the low- and high-criticality demand of tasks. We show that the new test strictly dominates the only other known demand-based test for such systems. We also propose a new deadline tightening strategy based on this test, and show through simulations that the strategy significantly outperforms all known scheduling algorithms for a variety of sporadic task systems.

Mixed-Criticality Scheduling with I/O

This paper addresses the problem of scheduling tasks with different criticality levels in the presence of I/O requests. In mixed-criticality scheduling, higher criticality tasks are given precedence over those of lower criticality when it is impossible to guarantee the schedulability of all tasks. While mixed-criticality scheduling has gained attention in recent years, most approaches typically assume a periodic task model. This assumption does not always hold in practice, especially for real-time and embedded systems that perform I/O. For example, many tasks block on I/O requests until device…

Supporting Soft Real-Time Sporadic Task Systems on Heterogeneous Multiprocessors with No Utilization Loss

Heterogeneous multicore architectures are becoming increasingly popular due to their potential of achieving high performance and energy efficiency compared to the homogeneous multicore architectures. In such systems, the real-time scheduling problem becomes more challenging in that processors have different speeds. A job executing on a processor with speed $x$ for $t$ time units completes $(x \cdot t)$ units of execution. Prior research on heterogeneous multiprocessor real-time scheduling has focused on hard real-time systems, where, significant processing capacity may have to be sacrificed in…

The Quest-V Separation Kernel for Mixed Criticality Systems

Multi- and many-core processors are becoming increasingly popular in embedded systems. Many of these processors now feature hardware virtualization capabilities, such as the ARM Cortex A15, and x86 processors with Intel VT-x or AMD-V support. Hardware virtualization offers opportunities to partition physical resources, including processor cores, memory and I/O devices amongst guest virtual machines. Mixed criticality systems and services can then co-exist on the same platform in separate virtual machines. However, traditional virtual machine systems are too expensive because of the costs of tr…

MORA: an Energy-Aware Slack Reclamation Scheme for Scheduling Sporadic Real-Time Tasks upon Multiprocessor Platforms

In this paper, we address the global and preemptive energy-aware scheduling problem of sporadic constrained-deadline tasks on DVFS-identical multiprocessor platforms. We propose an online slack reclamation scheme which profits from the discrepancy between the worst- and actual-case execution time of the tasks by slowing down the speed of the processors in order to save energy. Our algorithm called MORA takes into account the application-specific consumption profile of the tasks. We demonstrate that MORA does not jeopardize the system schedulability and we show by performing simulations that it…

Feasibility Tests for Recurrent Real-Time Tasks in the Sporadic DAG Model

A model has been proposed in [Baruah et al., in Proceedings of the IEEE Real-Time Systems Symposium 2012] for representing recurrent precedence-constrained tasks to be executed on multiprocessor platforms, where each recurrent task is modeled by a directed acyclic graph (DAG), a period, and a relative deadline. Each vertex of the DAG represents a sequential job, while the edges of the DAG represent precedence constraints between these jobs. All the jobs of the DAG are released simultaneously and have to be completed within some specified relative deadline. The task may release jobs in this man…

Integrating Job Parallelism in Real-Time Scheduling Theory

We investigate the global scheduling of sporadic, implicit deadline, real-time task systems on multiprocessor platforms. We provide a task model which integrates job parallelism. We prove that the time-complexity of the feasibility problem of these systems is linear relatively to the number of (sporadic) tasks for a fixed number of processors. We propose a scheduling algorithm theoretically optimal (i.e., preemptions and migrations neglected). Moreover, we provide an exact feasibility utilization bound. Lastly, we propose a technique to limit the number of migrations and preemptions.

Push Forward: Global Fixed-Priority Scheduling of Arbitrary-Deadline Sporadic Task Systems

The sporadic task model is often used to analyze recurrent execution of identical tasks in real-time systems. A sporadic task defines an infinite sequence of task instances, also called jobs, that arrive under the minimum inter-arrival time constraint. To ensure the system safety, timeliness has to be guaranteed in addition to functional correctness, i.e., all jobs of all tasks have to be finished before the job deadlines. We focus on analyzing arbitrary-deadline task sets on a homogeneous (identical) multiprocessor system under any given global fixed-priority scheduling approach and provide a…

Optimal Virtual Cluster-based Multiprocessor Scheduling

Scheduling of constrained deadline sporadic task systems on multiprocessor platforms is an area which has received much attention in the recent past. It is widely believed that finding an optimal scheduler is hard, and therefore most studies have focused on developing algorithms with good processor utilization bounds. These algorithms can be broadly classified into two categories: partitioned scheduling in which tasks are statically assigned to individual processors, and global scheduling in which each task is allowed to execute on any processor in the platform. In this paper we consider a thi…

Utilization Difference Based Partitioned Scheduling of Mixed-Criticality Systems

Mixed-Criticality (MC) systems consolidate multiple functionalities with different criticalities onto a single hardware platform. Such systems improve the overall resource utilization while guaranteeing resources to critical tasks. In this paper, we focus on the problem of partitioned multiprocessor MC scheduling, in particular the problem of designing efficient partitioning strategies. We develop two new partitioning strategies based on the principle of evenly distributing the difference between total high-critical utilization and total low-critical utilization for the critical tasks among al…

It's Time: OS Mechanisms for Enforcing Asymmetric Temporal Integrity

Mixed-criticality systems combine real-time components of different levels of criticality, i.e. severity of failure, on the same processor, in order to obtain good resource utilisation. They must guarantee deadlines of highly-critical tasks at the expense of lower-criticality ones in the case of overload. Present operating systems provide inadequate support for this kind of system, which is of growing importance in avionics and other verticals. We present an approach that provides the required asymmetric integrity and its implementation in the high-assurance seL4 microkernel.

Semi-Partitioned Hard Real-Time Scheduling with Restricted Migrations upon Identical Multiprocessor Platforms

Algorithms based on semi-partitioned scheduling have been proposed as a viable alternative between the two extreme ones based on global and partitioned scheduling. In particular, allowing migration to occur only for few tasks which cannot be assigned to any individual processor, while most tasks are assigned to specific processors, considerably reduces the runtime overhead compared to global scheduling on the one hand, and improve both the schedulability and the system utilization factor compared to partitioned scheduling on the other hand. In this paper, we address the preemptive scheduling p…

Power-Aware Real-Time Scheduling upon Identical Multiprocessor Platforms

In this paper, we address the power-aware scheduling of sporadic constrained-deadline hard real-time tasks using dynamic voltage scaling upon multiprocessor platforms. We propose two distinct algorithms. Our first algorithm is an off-line speed determination mechanism which provides an identical speed for each processor. That speed guarantees that all deadlines are met if the jobs are scheduled using EDF. The second algorithm is an on-line and adaptive speed adjustment mechanism which reduces the energy consumption while the system is running.

Multi-Rate Fluid Scheduling of Mixed-Criticality Systems on Multiprocessors

In this paper we consider the problem of mixed-criticality (MC) scheduling of implicit-deadline sporadic task systems on a homogenous multiprocessor platform. Focusing on dual-criticality systems, algorithms based on the fluid scheduling model have been proposed in the past. These algorithms use a dual-rate execution model for each high-criticality task depending on the system mode. Once the system switches to the high-criticality mode, the execution rates of such tasks are increased to meet their increased demand. Although these algorithms are speed-up optimal, they are unable to schedule sev…

Bringing Inter-Thread Cache Benefits to Federated Scheduling -- Extended Results & Technical Report

Multiprocessor scheduling of hard real-time tasks modeled by directed acyclic graphs (DAGs) exploits the inherent parallelism presented by the model. For DAG tasks, a node represents a request to execute an object on one of the available processors. In one DAG task, there may be multiple execution requests for one object, each represented by a distinct node. These distinct execution requests offer an opportunity to reduce their combined cache overhead through coordinated scheduling of objects as threads within a parallel task. The goal of this work is to realize this opportunity by incorporati…
