Exact Admission-Control for Integrated Aperiodic and Periodic Tasks
Bjorn A. Andersson, Cecilia Ekelin · 2005
Admission controllers are used to prevent overload in systems with dynamically arriving tasks. Typically, these admission controllers are based on sufficient (but not necessary) capacity bounds in order to maintain a low computational complexity. In this paper we present how exact admission-control for aperiodic tasks can be efficiently obtained. Our first result is an admission controller for purely aperiodic task sets where the test has the same runtime complexity as utilization-based tests. Our second result is an extension of the previous controller for a baseload of periodic tasks. The runtime complexity of this test is lower than for any known exact admission-controller.
