Heuristic Algorithms for Adaptive Resource Management of Periodic Task

The book presents a adaptive resource management heuristic techniques for periodic tasks in dynamic real- time distributed systems with the (soft real-time) objective of minimizing missed deadline ratios. The proposed resource management techniques continuously monitor the application tasks at run-time for adherence to the desired real-time requirements, detects timing failures or trends for impending failures (due to workload fluctuations), and dynamically allocate resources by replicating sub tasks of application tasks for load sharing.
