Real-Time Reconfigurable Scheduling of Aperiodic OS Tasks

The paper deals with the real-time scheduling of reconfigurable embedded systems which can change their behavior at run-time by adding, removing, or also updating OS tasks according to external events or also user requirements. We propose a new approach that checks the system's feasibility of the tasks that we assume periodic and a periodic while minimizing their response times. An agent-based architecture is proposed to provide run-time technical solutions for users in order to reach again the system's feasibility after any reconfiguration scenario. The effectiveness and the performance of the designed approach is evaluated through simulation studies.
