A cyber-physical system (CPS) is a system featuring a tight combination of, and coordination between, the system's computational and physical elements. The real time characteristic is a critical property of CPS. In order to improve the real-time performance, most algorithms use the preemptive scheduling model. However, the preemptive scheduling easily leads to task switching frequently, which increases communication overhead and seriously affect the real-time performance of CPS. Aiming at this problem, this paper proposes a real-time scheduling algorithm based on the reserved model. On the schedulable condition, by creating the relaxation time and the threshold of protection model, the number of task switching is reduced. The experimental results show that the algorithm can effectively reduce the task switching frequency and improve the CPS real-time performance.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
