Challenge Problems

Push your limits with advanced challenges

Challenge 1 Hard

Consider a scheduling scenario where three tasks need to be scheduled. Task A has a period of 10ms, Task B has a period of 15ms, and Task C has a period of 5ms. Prepare a schedule using both RMS and EDF, indicating when each task will run in a 30ms timeframe.

💡 Hint: Calculate the periodicity and compare priority assignments.

Challenge 2 Hard

Present a scenario in which using EDF may lead to a missed deadline even when the total CPU usage is below 100%. Describe potential strategies to mitigate this situation.

💡 Hint: Consider task overlaps and the timing of their resource usage.
