The work described in this book attempts to address the gap between scheduling theory and its practical implementation in real-time, resource-constrained embedded systems. Therefore, a simple technique, called Scheduler Test Case (STC), is proposed to explore the behaviour of a particular real-time scheduler implementation under different operating conditions. The focus of this work is on single-processor embedded systems employing Time-Triggered Co-operative (TTC) algorithm as a good match for many safety-critical applications. STC is a testing method which facilitates an empirical “black-box” comparison between the behaviour of representative implementations of the TTC algorithm. The STC technique is also used to evaluate the behaviour of multi-processor embedded designs employing Shared-Clock (S-C) scheduling architectures and TTC algorithm on the Controller Area Network (CAN) protocol. Here, the STC technique explores the impact of the S-C scheduler implementation on the...
