A Lazy Algorithm for Distributed Priority Assignment in Real-Time Systems
Moritz Neukirchner, Steffen Stein, Rolf Ernst · 2011
Integration of system components is a crucial challenge in the design of embedded real-time systems, as complex non-functional interdependencies may exist. [20] presented a framework, enabling autonomous verification of timing properties in the system itself. The work presented in this paper, takes that approach one step further, enabling autonomuous assignment of execution priorities under timing constraints. We present a distributed heuristic algorithm for the constraint statisfaction problem (CSP) of finding feasible priority assignments in static priority preemptive (SPP) scheduled hard real-time systems. The proposed heuristic considers end-to-end path latency constraints in arbitrary task graphs mapped on arbitrary platform graphs.
