Real-time scheduling and locking protocols are fundamental facilities to construct time-critical systems. For parallel real-time tasks, predictable locking protocols are required when concurrent sub-jobs mutually exclusive access to shared resources. This paper for the first time studies the distributed synchronization framework of parallel real-time tasks, where both tasks and global resources are partitioned to designated processors, and requests to each global resource are conducted on the processor on which the resource is partitioned. We extend the Distributed Priority Ceiling Protocol (DPCP) for parallel tasks under federated scheduling, with which we proved that a request can be blocked by at most one lower-priority request. We develop task and resource partitioning heuristics and propose analysis techniques to safely bound the task response times. Numerical evaluation (with heavy tasks on 8-, 16-, and 32-core processors) indicates that the proposed methods improve the schedulability significantly compared to the state-of-the-art locking protocols under federated scheduling.

This paper presents a new strategy for scheduling soft real-time tasks on multiple identical cores. The proposed approach is based on partitioned CPU reservations and it uses a reclaiming mechanism to reduce the number of missed deadlines. We introdu
ce the possibility for a task to temporarily migrate to another, less charged, CPU when it has exhausted the reserved bandwidth on its allocated CPU. In addition, we propose a simple load balancing method to decrease the number of deadlines missed by the tasks. The proposed algorithm has been evaluated through simulations, showing its effectiveness (compared to other multi-core reclaiming approaches) and comparing the performance of different partitioning heuristics (Best Fit, Worst Fit and First Fit).
In this paper, we propose a synchronous protocol without periodicity for scheduling multi-mode real-time systems upon identical multiprocessor platforms. Our proposal can be considered to be a multiprocessor extension of the uniprocessor protocol called Minimal Single Offset protocol.
Recent commercial hardware platforms for embedded real-time systems feature heterogeneous processing units and computing accelerators on the same System-on-Chip. When designing complex real-time application for such architectures, the designer needs
to make a number of difficult choices: on which processor should a certain task be implemented? Should a component be implemented in parallel or sequentially? These choices may have a great impact on feasibility, as the difference in the processor internal architectures impact on the tasks execution time and preemption cost. To help the designer explore the wide space of design choices and tune the scheduling parameters, in this paper we propose a novel real-time application model, called C-DAG, specifically conceived for heterogeneous platforms. A C-DAG allows to specify alternative implementations of the same component of an application for different processing engines to be selected off-line, as well as conditional branches to model if-then-else statements to be selected at run-time. We also propose a schedulability analysis for the C-DAG model and a heuristic allocation algorithm so that all deadlines are respected. Our analysis takes into account the cost of preempting a task, which can be non-negligible on certain processors. We demonstrate the effectiveness of our approach on a large set of synthetic experiments by comparing with state of the art algorithms in the literature.
When integrating hard, soft and non-real-time tasks in general purpose operating systems, it is necessary to provide temporal isolation so that the timing properties of one task do not depend on the behaviour of the others. However, strict budget enf
orcement can lead to inefficient use of the computational resources in the presence of tasks with variable workload. Many resource reclaiming algorithms have been proposed in the literature for single processor scheduling, but not enough work exists for global scheduling in multiprocessor systems. In this report, we propose two reclaiming algorithms for multiprocessor global scheduling and we prove their correctness.
Many emerging cyber-physical systems, such as autonomous vehicles and robots, rely heavily on artificial intelligence and machine learning algorithms to perform important system operations. Since these highly parallel applications are computationally
intensive, they need to be accelerated by graphics processing units (GPUs) to meet stringent timing constraints. However, despite the wide adoption of GPUs, efficiently scheduling multiple GPU applications while providing rigorous real-time guarantees remains a challenge. In this paper, we propose RTGPU, which can schedule the execution of multiple GPU applications in real-time to meet hard deadlines. Each GPU application can have multiple CPU execution and memory copy segments, as well as GPU kernels. We start with a model to explicitly account for the CPU and memory copy segments of these applications. We then consider the GPU architecture in the development of a precise timing model for the GPU kernels and leverage a technique known as persistent threads to implement fine-grained kernel scheduling with improved performance through interleaved execution. Next, we propose a general method for scheduling parallel GPU applications in real time. Finally, to schedule multiple parallel GPU applications, we propose a practical real-time scheduling algorithm based on federated scheduling and grid search (for GPU kernel segments) with uniprocessor fixed priority scheduling (for multiple CPU and memory copy segments). Our approach provides superior schedulability compared with previous work, and gives real-time guarantees to meet hard deadlines for multiple GPU applications according to comprehensive validation and evaluation on a real NVIDIA GTX1080Ti GPU system.
