Abstract

The design of mixed-criticality systems is often subject to mandatory certification and has been drawing considerable attention over the past few years. This letter studies fixed-priority scheduling of mixed-criticality systems on a uniprocessor platform but in a more general way, using different priority orderings in different execution phases and considering them collectively. Then a sufficient response-time analysis is developed and a new priority assignment scheme is proposed. This generalized approach has potential in better schedulability performance for mixed-criticality systems.
