Abstract
This paper demonstrates a formal, quantitative methodology for making engineering decisions on the construction and implementation of application specific, real-time operating systems. Specifically, we present the results of a case study comparing the relative viability of dynamic versus fixed priority schedulers within the context of the Mwave/OS operating system. Mwave/OS is being used in forthcoming products from IBM that will provide single board implementations of audio, video, facsimile, modems, MIDI, etc. to the PC marketplace. Scheduling models for both dynamic and fixed priority scheduling implementations for the Mwave/OS system are developed. The scheduling models include simple utilization-based tests that are suitable for on-line use, and more complex time-based tests. The complex, dynamic scheduling model is validated against the actual hardware and shown to be accurate to within 1%. The relative viability of the fixed vs dynamic priority scheduling for IBM's application i...
