Abstract

Abstract

En 中文
Multilayer multiprocessor systems are generally employed in real-time applications such as robotics and computer vision. This paper introduces three heuristic algorithms for multiprocessor task scheduling in such systems. In our model, tasks with arbitrary processing times and arbitrary processor requirements are considered. The scheduling aims at minimising completion time of processes in a two-layer system. We employed an effective lower bound (LB) for the problem. Then, we analysed the average performance of the heuristic algorithms by computing the average percentage deviation of each heuristic solution from the LB on a set of randomly generated problems. We have also applied these algorithms for scheduling computer vision tasks running on prototype multilayer architecture. Our computational and empirical results showed that the proposed heuristic algorithms perform well. (C) 2001 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
