Reader preference, writer preference, and task-fair reader-writer locks are shown to cause undue blocking in multiprocessor real-time systems. Phase-fair reader writer locks, a ne...
In the domain of multiprocessor real-time systems, there has been a wealth of recent work on scheduling, but relatively little work on the equally-important topic of synchronizati...
We investigate the preemptive scheduling of periodic tasks with hard deadlines. We show that, even in the uniprocessor case, no polynomial time algorithm can test the feasibility ...

In this paper we study the global scheduling of periodic task systems upon uniform multiprocessor platforms. We first show two very general properties which are wellknown for uni...
