PG-Dep-FRAMES – Faults and Reliability Aware Methodologies for Efficient Scheduling

Real-time systems typically have to satisfy complex requirements mapped to the timing attributes of the tasks that are eventually guaranteed by the underlying scheduler. These systems consist of a mix of hard/soft tasks with varying criticalities as well as associated fault tolerance (FT) requirements. Hence scheduling decisions under fault assumptions has to reflect all these factors in addition to resource constraints. The FRAMES project will perform research on various methodologies for fault-tolerant scheduling of component based embedded systems.
