Abstract

The non-preemptive scheduling of periodic task systems upon processing platforms comprised of several identical processors is considered. The exact problem has previously been proven intractable even upon single processors; sufficient conditions are presented here for determining whether a given periodic task system will meet all deadlines if scheduled non-preemptively upon a multiprocessor platform using the earliest-deadline first scheduling algorithm.
