Abstract
In one embodiment, a method for margin determination for a computing system with a real time operating system and priority preemptive scheduling comprises: scheduling a set of tasks to be executed in one or more partitions, wherein each is assigned a priority, wherein the tasks comprise periodic and/or aperiodic tasks; executing the set of tasks on the computing system within the scheduled periodic time window; introducing an overhead task executed for an execution duration controlled either by the real time operating system or by the overhead task; controlling the overhead task to converge on a point of failure at which a length of the execution duration of the overhead task causes either: 1) a periodic task to fail to execute within a deadline, or 2) time available for the aperiodic tasks to execute to fall below a threshold; and defining a partition margin corresponding to the point of failure.
