Abstract

Scheduling dependent, preemptable tasks with regard to primary memory allocation in multiprocessor system with virtual memory and a common primary memory is considered. The system — workload complex is based on an analytic approximation to the lifetime curves of tasks. The exact algorithm which minimize the schedule length for an arbitrary number of identical processors is presented and compared with the approximate algorithm.
