The Department of Informatics Engineering (DEI) of the Institute of Engineering of Porto (ISEP), with the Master in Critical Computing Systems Engineering (MESCC), invites to the webinar "Critical Computing Series: Building Real-Time Software on Linux using SCHED_DEADLINE", that will take place on March 2nd, at 3:00 PM, room B203.
SCHED_DEADLINE is a relatively new scheduling class that was recently added to the Linux kernel for dealing with real-time tasks, in addition to the well-known POSIX-compliant priority-based real-time scheduling class. SCHED_DEADLINE adds a deadline-based scheduler for real-time tasks implementing the well-known Earliest Deadline First (EDF) scheduling policy, configurable as a global, partitioned or clustered EDF scheduler, with the addition of a multi-processor variant of the Constant Bandwidth Server (CBS) algorithm, merged with further features like the Greedy Reclamation of Unused Bandwidth (GRUB), plus a few recently added integration with the energy-aware scheduling subsystem of Linux.
