Abstract
Techniques for allocating computing resources to tasks include receiving first data and second data. The first data indicates a limit for unblocked execution by a processor of a set of at least one task that includes instructions for the processor. The second data indicates a maximum use of the processor by the set. It is determined whether a particular set of at least one task has exceeded the limit for unblocked execution based on the first data. If it is determined that the particular set has exceeded the limit, then execution of the particular set by the processor is blocked for a yield time interval based on the second data. These techniques can guarantee that no time-critical tasks of an embedded system on a specific-purpose device are starved for processor time by tasks of foreign applications also executed by the processor.
