In the context of computer systems, scheduling theory seeks to enable the efficient utilization of computing resources in order to optimize specified system-wide objectives. In this presentation we will examine how real-time scheduling theory is dealing with the recent trend in embedded systems towards implementing functionalities of different levels of importance, or criticalities, upon a shared platform. We will explore the factors that motivated this trend towards mixed-criticality (MC) systems, discuss how these MC systems pose new challenges to real-time scheduling theory, and describe how real-time scheduling theory is responding to these challenges by devising new models and methods for the design and analysis of MC systems.
