Hard Real-Time Stationary GANG-Scheduling

Authors: Niklas Ueter, Mario Günzel, Georg von der Brüggen, and Jian-Jia Chen

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 196, 33rd Euromicro Conference on Real-Time Systems (ECRTS 2021)


Abstract
The scheduling of parallel real-time tasks enables the efficient utilization of modern multiprocessor platforms for systems with real-time constrains. In this situation, the gang task model, in which each parallel sub-job has to be executed simultaneously, has shown significant performance benefits due to reduced context switches and more efficient intra-task synchronization. In this paper, we provide the first schedulability analysis for sporadic constrained-deadline gang task systems and propose a novel stationary gang scheduling algorithm. We show that the schedulability problem of gang task sets can be reduced to the uniprocessor self-suspension schedulability problem. Furthermore, we provide a class of partitioning algorithms to find a stationary gang assignment and show that it bounds the worst-case interference of each task. To demonstrate the effectiveness of our proposed approach, we evaluate it for implicit-deadline systems using randomized task sets under different settings, showing that our approach outperforms the state-of-the-art.

Push Forward: Global Fixed-Priority Scheduling of Arbitrary-Deadline Sporadic Task Systems

Authors: Jian-Jia Chen, Georg von der Brüggen, and Niklas Ueter

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 106, 30th Euromicro Conference on Real-Time Systems (ECRTS 2018)


Abstract
The sporadic task model is often used to analyze recurrent execution of tasks in real-time systems. A sporadic task defines an infinite sequence of task instances, also called jobs, that arrive under the minimum inter-arrival time constraint. To ensure the system safety, timeliness has to be guaranteed in addition to functional correctness, i.e., all jobs of all tasks have to be finished before the job deadlines. We focus on analyzing arbitrary-deadline task sets on a homogeneous (identical) multiprocessor system under any given global fixed-priority scheduling approach and provide a series of schedulability tests with different tradeoffs between their time complexity and their accuracy. Under the arbitrary-deadline setting, the relative deadline of a task can be longer than the minimum inter-arrival time of the jobs of the task. We show that global deadline-monotonic (DM) scheduling has a speedup bound of 3-1/M against any optimal scheduling algorithms, where M is the number of identical processors, and prove that this bound is asymptotically tight.
