Abstract: We consider non-preemptive fixed-priority scheduling of a set of constrained-deadline sporadic tasks on a single processor. We assume that the execution time of a job J depends on the sequence of jobs executed before J, that is, the execution time of a job of a task is not a constant. We raise the following two open problems (i) given a priority assignment, can the response time of a task be computed in pseudo-polynomial time? and (ii) how to create an optimal priority-assignment scheme?
