[comp.lang.ada] ARTEWG Scheduling Survey

brucej@SSD.HARRIS.COM (Bruce Jones) (07/22/89)

The ACM's SigAda Ada Runtime Environments Working Group (ARTEWG)
is studying the problems of Ada task scheduling in real-time
applications.

We are interested in the requirements of real-time systems,  and in
the scheduling approaches and techniques used to meet those
requirements.  We are especially interested in scheduling techniques
beyond Ada's standard priority-based aperiodic preemptive scheduling,
such as the use of cyclic executives,  the Rate Monotonic Scheduling
algorithm,  and so on.

Please email brief contributions to jonesb@ajpo.sei.cmu.edu.  Direct
replies to this article will also be collected,  although email is 
preferred to reduce net traffic.  Thank you!
