Trying different scheduling algorithms in erika OS

[saydam]

Hello everybody, this is my first post.

I was impressed by the work of Paolo Gai.
I will embed erika to arduino uno, but i want to try different scheduling algorithms(e.g. Round robin, SJF, FCFS).
My purpose is evaluating the performance of scheduling algorithms.
Could i try this ? Is it possible ?

If it is possible, how can i do that, is there a document ?

Hi,

Thanks for your compliments, not only to me but to the whole team who is working on ERIKA.

About the support of additional scheduling algorithms: ERIKA3 has the parts related to the scheduler separated in separate files. You can try to change them, but it will not be as easy as it was in Shark (http://shark.sssup.it).

My suggestion would be to start with an existing demo, compile it. then understand where are the functions (search for example for ee_oo_sched*.c), and then modify them. The thing which is lacking in ERIKA3 is a time support like we had in Shark, this was very useful when designing the time handling and the handling of the wake up points....

Ciao,

Actually, now i think to try time trigger architecture and event trigger architecture on my arduino.
I know erika supports Earliest Deadline First (EDF) as event trigger architecture.

I can call tasks with static schedule table with the aid of alarms.
Then, can we say Erika supports time trigger architecture ?

Hi,

EDF was supported on ERIKA2, not yet ported to ERIKA3.

For a time triggered implementation, you should try with emulating it with a Schedule table...

Hi,

I downloaded VirtualBox for Erika v2 and i rearranged the oil and cpp file according to EDF configuration like https://erika.tuxfamily.org/wiki/index. ... _scheduler.

However i took this error:

I know this error for not defining __TIMER_1_USED__ . I also define as EE_OPT but there is no change at error. How should i make a change in code to avoid this error ?
