Open Access padlockePrints

The Newcastle University research output collection, currently available on ePrints, will shortly be moving to a new open repository platform, Figshare. To prepare for the data migration we have paused adding new content to ePrints, and will resume once the new repository is launched. During this time you will continue to have access to ePrints (but no new content will appear). We will share updates here when available.

Abstract

The paper presents the results of an investigation, by means of simulation, of a variety of multiprocessor scheduling algorithms. The algorithms investigated included two that used job priority levels, and two that involved the specification of job deadlines. Thus changing relative job urgency with the passage of time would be reflected by periodic rescheduling. The evaluation of all algorithms was with with respect to their ability to meet deadlines.
