Abstract
An apparatus schedules execution of a plurality of tasks by a processor. Each task has an associated periodicity and an associated priority based upon the associated periodicity. The processor executes each of the plurality of tasks periodically according to the associated periodicity of the task. A scheduler, at each of a series of scheduling time points updates the priorities of the plurality of tasks and schedules the tasks that need to be executed in accordance with their priorities. The scheduler identifies an unexecuted task which, at a preceding scheduling time point, was scheduled for execution but which, since that preceding scheduling time point, has not been executed. The scheduler sets the priority of the unexecuted task as greater than the priority of other tasks that have the same periodicity as the unexecuted task and that are not themselves unexecuted tasks.
