Impact of Process Load on Real Time System Performance

Abstract

The ability of the system to complete the task within the stipulated deadline is an important parameter for real time systems. The relative deadlines for the processes may vary under different process load which is analysed in this paper using two widely used scheduling algorithms, Earliest Deadline First (EDF) and Rate Monotonic (RM). Also, different load conditions are considered which are classified as minimum, medium and maximum load in a system. The performance of the system under different load is graphically represented considering wide range of processes.
