Summary: | Real-time operating systems play an important role in time and safety-critical software systems used in many fields, such as avionics, automotives and defense applications. μC/OS-III is an open-source real-time operating system which aims to be used on embedded devices with restricted resources. μC/OS-III has many useful features; however, it does not have better algorithms proven in more recent advances in real-time systems research.
In this thesis, a hybrid scheduler where Earliest Deadline First scheduling runs on top of Fixed-Priority scheduling and Priority Ceiling Protocol for time-guaranteed resource sharing are implemented to enhance μC/OS-III.
