Timing Analysis for DAG-based and GFP Scheduled Tasks

Abstract: Modern embedded systems have made the transition from single-core to multi-core architectures, providing performance improvement via parallelism rather than higher clock frequencies. DAGs are considered among the most generic task models in the real-time domain and are well suited to exploit this parallelism. In this paper we provide a schedulability test using response-time analysis exploiting exploring and bounding the self interference of a DAG task. Additionally we bound the interference a high priority task has on lower priority ones.
