Decentralized Control of Scheduling in Distributed Systems.

Abstract

This report summarizes the work performed during the tenth quarter of this contract, from March 15, 1984 to June 14, 1984. The work in this quarter concentrated in three areas: simulations of our real-time bidding algorithms, non-traditional architectures studies for real-time systems, and scheduling tasks with resource requirements in hard real-time systems. Section 2 of this report describes the progress made in each of these areas. Significant results have been obtained which provides insight into the effectiveness of the algorithm. An improvement over the basic algorithm has been found. The improvement uses the prediction of future surplus time instead of the current surplus time in modifying bids. This report describes the basic algorithm and then describes the simulation results.
