Abstract
A multi processor task allocation method is described that considers task dependencies while performing task allocation in order to avoid blocking of a task's execution while waiting for the resolution of the dependency. While allocating the tasks to the processors the potential blocking time is considered, and the best allocation that will have the least amount of blocking time is found.
