Abstract

This paper presents a new method of scheduling which uses a modification of Muntz-Coffman algorithm. This novel method takes into account three-processors tasks. Acyclic directed graph is used as a specification of system, which involves one- and two-processors tasks, and attribute of divisibility/indivisibility of tasks. The graph constituting the input data for the created system is generated based on the TGFF algorithm. Scheduling of these tasks is prepared on NoC architecture which consists of three processors. In this paper, algorithm of scheduling tasks using new approach to prioritize and prepare ranking of tasks on chosen architecture, is presented.
