Timing Analysis of the Priority based FRP System
Chaitanya Belwal, Albert M. K. Cheng, Walid Taha, Angela Yun Zhu · 2008
Kaiabachev, Taha, Zhu [1] have presented a declarative programming paradigm called Functional Reactive Programming, which is based on behaviors and events. An improved system called P-FRP uses fixed priority scheduling for tasks. The system allows for the currently executing lower priority tasks to be rolled back to restoring the original state and allowing a higher priority task to run. These aborted tasks will restart again when no tasks of higher priority are in the queue. Since P-FRP has many applications in the real time domain it is critical to understand the time bound in which the tasks which have been aborted are guaranteed to run, and if the task set is schedulable. In this paper we provide an analysis of the unique execution paradigm of the P-FRP system and study the timing bounds using different constraint variables.* 1.
