Multiprocessor EDF and deadline monotonic schedulability analysis
Theodore P. Baker · 2004
Schedulability tests are presented for preemptive earlier-deadline-first and deadline-monotonic scheduling of periodic or sporadic real-time tasks on a single-queue m-server system, in which the deadline of a task may be less than or equal to the task period. These results subsume and generalize several known utilization-based multiprocessor schedulability tests, and are derived via an independent proof.
