14.2 Computing the Worst-Case Execution Time
The previous chapter introduced an approach to schedulability analysis based on a single quantity, the utilization factor U, which is very easy to compute even for large task sets. The drawback of this simple approach is a limit in the accuracy of the analysis, which provides only necessary or sufficient conditions for fixed-priority schedulability. Moreover, utilization-based analysis cannot be extended to more general process models, for example, when the relative deadline Di of task τi is lower than its period Ti. In this chapter, a more sophisticated ...
