Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Decades of research in real-time systems have produced many different approaches to scheduling computer resources. Each of these scheduling policies offers attractive features for certain systems but fails to effectively schedule the tasks in others. No single best approach has been found. Fuzzy Priority Scheduling has emerged as an alternative approach by enabling the develpoment of domain-specific scheduling policies through the combination of fuzzy logic and model-based systems. Fuzzy Priority Scheduling had previously been limited to CPU scheduling decisision. This research extends Fuzzy Priority Scheduling for distributed real-time systems by demonstrating fuzzy logic based constructions of three classic real-time communication scheduling policies: Priority-Driven Protocol, Timed-Token Protocol and the distributed version of Generalized Rate Monotonic Scheduling.
