There are many scheduling algorithms implemented in embedded OSs, and every design has its strengths and tradeoffs. The key factors that impact the effectiveness and performance of a scheduling ...

Short Term vs. Long Term Scheduling. Most computer operating systems must multi-task. They use a scheduling algorithm that decides which of the many processes can be run at any given time.

Most high-performance embedded systems do not need an expensive and full-functionality real-time operating system (RTOS). ... Typical applications are in defence, aerospace, industrial, and automotive ...

"When compared to other operating system scheduling policies, MotionWise Schedule for QNX delivers a vast improvement in OS task switching and a significant increase in CPU resource availability.
