Reading assignment (to be completed by the next class):

• Davis, Robert I., and Alan Burns. “A survey of hard real-time scheduling for multiprocessor systems.” ACM computing surveys (CSUR) 43, no. 4 (2011): 1-44.
  • Sec. 6 intro and Sec. 6.1 (pages 35:17-35:19)
  • Really, the whole thing is really helpful as it organizes so many results into a single paper
