Adaptive Hierarchical Scheduling Framework : Configuration and Evaluation

We have introduced an adaptive hierarchicalscheduling framework as a solution for composing dynamic realtime systems, i.e., systems where the CPU demand of its tasks aresubjected to unknown and potentially drastic changes during runtime. The framework consists of a controller which periodicallyadapts the system to the current load situation. In this paper,we unveil and explore the detailed behavior and performanceof such an adaptive framework. Specifically, we investigate thecontroller configurations enabling efficient control parameterswhich maximizes performance, and we evaluate the adaptiveframework against a traditional static one
