Challenge Problems

Push your limits with advanced challenges

Challenge 1 Hard

A real-time system has a periodic task with a period of 100ms and execution time of 20ms, and a sporadic server with a budget of 25ms and period of 50ms. How would resource allocation look for these tasks over time, and how can the sporadic server manage sporadic requests while allowing periodic tasks to complete?

💡 Hint: Lay out a timeline showing when periods and budgets overlap.

Challenge 2 Hard

In a scenario where sporadic tasks arrive frequently but sporadically, assess the implications of budget depletion on the performance of the real-time system and suggest strategies for maintaining efficiency.

💡 Hint: Consider the balance of budget and time constraints.
