Abstract

To verify the feasibility of real-time task sets on homogeneous multiprocessor systems, Lopez et al. derived the utilization bound based on Best Fit Decreasing allocation algorithm and Rate-Monotonic scheduling, which coincides with the maximum achievable multiprocessor utilization bound, using Liu a Lyland bound as the uniprocessor schedulability condition. In this paper, a novel feasibility test for the same target problem is developed based on the hyperbolic bound due to Bini et al., instead of the Liu \a Layland bound. Analytical and experimental results show that the proposed utilization bound performs better than the existing bound under quite a lot of parameter settings, and combining these two bounds together can significantly increase the number of schedulable task sets with little extra overhead.
