TORSCHE Scheduling toolbox for Matlab

This paper presents a Matlab based Scheduling toolbox TORSCHE (Time Optimization of Resources, SCHEduling). The toolbox offers a collection of data structures that allow the user to formalize various off-line and online scheduling problems. Algorithms are simply implemented as Matlab functions with fixed structure allowing users to implement new algorithms. A more complex problem can be formulated as an Integer Linear Programming problem or satisfiability of boolean expression problem. The toolbox is intended mainly as a research tool to handle control and scheduling co-design problems. Therefore, we provide an interfaces to a real-time Matlab/Simulik based simulator TrueTime and a code generator allowing to generate parallel code for FPGA.
