Implementing real-time scheduling daemon in general purpose operating system unix

In this paper; we propose a method implementing real-time scheduling in the Unix, a general-purpose operating system (GPOS), by considering the deadline of real-time tasks. Our approach employs a special task called the scheduling daemon, which deals with all the real-time tasks in a system and makes just one task become a ready-to-run state and others sleep state. This causes the Unix scheduler to deal with only one real-time task as a rule, and thus bypasses time sharing-based scheduling strategy of the Unix. Therefore, all the real-time tasks are scheduled by the strategy of the scheduling daemon. We implement the scheduling daemon on the Unix, and build a real-time platform in or der that application programmers develop real-time systems more effectively. Moreover, we show, the superiority of our approach through extensive experiments.
