Abstract

See full text

A scheduler with admissions control in a continuous media file server is presented. The scheduler supports multiple classes of tasks with diverse performance requirements. The scheduler is based on a combination of rate-monotonic and weighted round-robin scheduling schemes. Scheduling is accomplished in a hierarchical manner. Isochronous tasks have the highest priority and are scheduled first followed by real-time and general-purpose tasks. Isochronous tasks run periodically and are invoked by a timer interrupt set for each task. After scheduling the isochronous tasks, the scheduler alternates between the real-time tasks and the general-purpose tasks using a weighted round-robin scheme.
