For multiprocessor systems, Earliest Deadline First (EDF) based on deadline and Least Laxity First (LLF) based on laxity are not suitable for practical environment since EDF has low schedulability and LLF has high context switching overhead. As a combining of EDF and LLF to improve the performance, Earliest Deadline Zero Laxity (EDZL) was proposed. EDZL is basically the same as EDF. But if the laxity of a task becomes zero, its priority is promoted to the highest level. In this paper, we propose Least Laxity Zero Laxity (LLZL) which is based on LLF. But context switching is allowed only if the laxity of a task on rady queue becomes zero. Simulation results show that LLZL has high schedulability approaching to LLF and low context switching overhead similar to EDF. In comparison with EDZL, LLZL has better performance in both of schedulability and context switching overhead.

An implementation scheme and some improvements are proposed to adopt public-licensed operating system, Linux and de-facto world-wide network standard, TCP/IP into the field of behavior-based autonomous mobile robots. To demonstrate the needs of scheme and the improvement, an analysis is performed on a server/client communication problem with real time Linux previously proposed, and another analysis is also performed on interactions among TCP/IP communications and the performance of Linux system using them. Implementation of behavior-based control architecture on real time Linux is proposed firstly. Revised task-scheduling schemes are proposed that can enhance the performance of server/client communication among local tasks on a Linux platform. A new method of TCP/IP packet flow handling is proposed that prioritizes TCP/IP software interrupts with aperiodic server mechanism as well. To evaluate the implementation scheme and the proposed improvements, performance enhancements are shown through some simulations.

단일프로세서 환경에서 주기 태스크의 시간 제약 조건을 만족시키면서 비주기 태스크의 평균 서비스 시간을 최소화하는 연구가 계속 진행되어 왔으나, 최근의 시스템은 여러 개의 프로세서를 병렬처리하여 프로그램의 처리속도 향상을 꾀하는 멀티프로세서 환경으로 전환되어 가는 추세다. 따라서, 멀티프로세서 환경에서의 태스크 스케쥴링에 관한 다양한 여구가 필요하게 되었다. 일반적으로 멀티프로세서 환경에서는 주기 태스크를 스케쥴링하기 위해서 RMFF(Rate-monotonic First-Fit) 스케쥴링 알고리즘을 사용하는데, 이 알고리즘에서는 비주기 태스크의 스케쥴링을 위한 알고리즘을 추가로 요구한다. 따라서, 본 논문에서는 멀티프로세서 환경에서 주기 태스크와 비주기 태스크가 혼합되어 있을 때, 기존의 RMFF 방식에 슬랙 체크테이블(Slack Check Table;SCT)을 이용하여 비주가 태스크를 효율적으로 스케쥴링하기 위한 방법을 제안한다.

In recent years, distributed control systems(DCS) using fieldbus such as CAN have been applied to process systems but it is very difficult to design the DCS while guaranteeing the given end-to-end constraints such as precedence constraints, time constraints, and periods and priorities of tasks and messages. This paper presents a scheduling method to guarantee the given end-to-end constraints considering aperiodic, periodic and non-real-time message and task simultaneously. The presented scheduling method is the integrated one considering both tasks executed in each node and messages transmitted via the network and is designed to be applied to a general DCS that has multiple loops with several types of constraints, where each loop consists of sensor nodes with multiple sensors, actuator nodes with multiple actuators and controller nodes with multiple tasks.

실시간 시스템에서 주기 태스크의 마감시간을 보장하며 도착 시간을 예측할 수 없는 비주기 태스크를 처리되도록 스케줄링 하는 것은 매우 중요하다. 본 논문에서는 정적 우선순위 스케줄링 방식 중 최적인 RM방식으로 주기 태스크를 스케줄링하고, 비주기 태스크의 발생시 비주기 태스크를 EDF 방식으로 스케줄링하여 오프라인에서 구한 슬랙을 비주기 태스크에 할당한다. 제안한 방식은 비주기 태스크의 마감시한내의 슬랙과 비주기 태스크의 실행 시간을 비교하여 비주기 태스크가 마감시한 내에 실행되지 못하는 경우 주기 태스크와 슬랙을 최적적합으로 교환하는 방식을 사용하여 비주기 태스크의 처리를 가능하게 하였다. 제안된 방식은 경성 비주기 태스크와 연성 비주기 태스크에 적용이 가능하며, 실험 결과 교환 알고리즘을 적용한 스케줄링 방식이 적용하지 않은 스케줄링 방식에 비해 비주기 태스크의 처리율이 높게 나왔다.

임베디드 소프트웨어는 국방, 항공 우주, 자동차와 같이 다양한 응용분야에서 그 중요성이 부각되고 있다. 이와 함께 시스템 자원의 효율성을 높이고 응용 소프트웨어 간 안전한 실행환경을 제공하기 위해서 자원 파티셔닝의 필요성이 강조되고 있다. 최근 임베디드 시스템의 응용 분야가 다양해지면서 주기적인 파티션과 함께 비주기적인 파티션들에 대한 요구가 증가하고 있다. 하지만 기존 시스템들은 비주기적인 파티션은 고려하고 있지 않거나, 주기적인 파티션에 비해서 우선순위가 낮게 취급하고 있다. 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위해서 본 논문은 높은 우선순위의 비주기적인 태스크 그룹을 지원하기 위한 구조를 제안하고, 리눅스의 cgroup 프레임워크를 확장하여 구현한다.

Auditory perceptual assessment and acoustic analysis are commonly used in clinical practice for voice evaluation. This study aims to explore the effects of speech task context on auditory perceptual assessment and acoustic measures in patients with voice disorders. Sustained vowel phonations (/a/, /e/, /i/, /o/, /u/, /ɯ/, /ʌ/) and connected speech (a standardized paragraph 'kaeul' and nine sub-sentences) were obtained from a total of 22 patients with voice disorders. GRBAS ('G', 'R', 'B', 'A', 'S') and CAPE-V ('OS', 'R', 'B', 'S', 'P', 'L') auditory-perceptual assessment were evaluated by two certified speech language pathologists specializing in voice disorders using blind and random voice samples. Additionally, spectral and cepstral measures were analyzed using the analysis of dysphonia in speech and voice model (ADSV).When assessing voice quality with the GRBAS scale, it was not significantly affected by the vowel type except for 'B', while the 'OS', 'R' and 'B' in CAPE-V were affected by the vowel type (p<.05). In addition, measurements of CPP and L/H ratio were influenced by vowel types and sentence positions. CPP values in the standard paragraph showed significant negative correlations with all vowels, with the highest correlation observed for /e/ vowel (r=-.739). The CPP of the second sentence had the strongest correlation with all vowels. Depending on the speech stimulus, CAPE-V may have a greater impact on auditory-perceptual assessment than GRBAS, vowel types and sentence position with consonants influenced the 'B' scale, CPP, and L/H ratio. When using vowels in the voice assessment of patients with voice disorders, it would be beneficial to use not only /a/, but also the vowel /i/, which is acoustically highly correlated with 'breathy'. In addition, the /e/ vowel was highly correlated acoustically with the standardized passage and sub-sentences. Furthermore, given that most dysphonic signals are aperiodic, 2nd sentence of the 'kaeul' passage, which is the most acoustically correlated with all vowels, can be used with CPP. These results provide clinical evidence of the impact of speech tasks on auditory perceptual and acoustic measures, which may help to provide guidelines for voice evaluation in patients with voice disorders.
