Scheduling Suspendable, Pipelined Tasks with Non-Preemptive Sections in Soft Real-Time Multiprocessor Systems
While most prior work on multiprocessor real-time scheduling focuses on independent tasks, dependencies due to non-preemptive sections, suspensions, and pipelinebased precedence c...

Reader-Writer Synchronization for Shared-Memory Multiprocessor Real-Time Systems
Reader preference, writer preference, and task-fair readerwriter locks are shown to cause undue blocking in multiprocessor real-time systems. A new phase-fair reader-writer lock i...
