Scheduling in Real-Time Systems presents:

Rigorous discussions of the main scheduling algorithms.
In-depth analyses of centralised and distributed computing systems.
Detailed coverage of symmetric multiprocessor systems sharing a common memory.
A complete appraisal of packet scheduling in networks.
Three relevant case studies including the control system of the robot that the Pathfinder space vehicle landed on Planet Mars.
