Abstract

In this work, we consider the scheduling of real-time periodic tasks on multiprocessors under a restricted-migration constraint (tasks are allowed to migrate whereas jobs are not). We first propose a technique, (offline) job partitioning, which statically assigns jobs to processors before execution. We show that (offline) job partitioning strictly dominates both partitioned and restricted-migration scheduling. We then consider r-RM, a restricted-migration variant of global RM, we design a sufficient schedulability test and we provide a speedup factor for the scheduler.
