Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Consider a real-time system that must manage three tasks with the following periods: Task A (5 ms), Task B (10 ms), Task C (20 ms). Apply Rate-Monotonic Scheduling to define the task priorities and explain why they were assigned accordingly.

πŸ’‘ Hint: What happens based on the frequency of tasks?

Question 2

Design a Round-Robin scheduler with four tasks that each need 8 ms CPU time and a time slice of 2 ms. How will tasks be scheduled over one cycle?

πŸ’‘ Hint: How many cycles are needed for all tasks to finish?
