Abstract

Real-time packet schedulers based on EDF policy have been extensively studied to support end-to-end bounded delay for real-time traffic. Since non-real-time traffic could hurt the schedulability of realtime traffic, we need a real-time packet scheduling method considering non-real-time traffic. In this paper, we propose a new admission control algorithm for EDF-based packet scheduling scheme. Proposed scheme consists of two packet schedulers: an EDF scheduler servicing real-time traffic and a Periodic Server (PS) scheduler servicing non-real-time traffic periodically. Proposed scheme provides good performance to non-real-time flows while guaranteeing the schedulability of real-time flows.
