This paper presents a comprehensive comparison between job-level dynamic scheduling algorithms on real-time multiprocessor environments using simulation. Earliest Deadline First (EDF) and Least Laxity First (LLF) are two well-known and extensively applied dynamic scheduling algorithms which have been proved to be optimal on uniprocessor systems. However, neither is shown to be optimal on multiprocessors. Many researches have already been done on aforementioned algorithms, but to the best of our knowledge, none of which has compared the efficiency of the two algorithms under similar conditions. Perhaps the main reason is that LLF algorithm is fully dynamic and impractical to implement. In... 

In this paper, a flux search controller is proposed to increase the efficiency of a direct torque controlled induction motor with light load. The reference flux value is determined through a two stage minimization algorithm with the amplitude of the stator current as the objective function. In the transient state, a great flux step is used to speed up the convergence. In the steady state, a noise cancellation algorithm is used to let using small flux step and improves the steady state behavior of flux controller. Simulation and experimental confirm the fast dynamics of the proposed method and its superiority compared to the other optimal flux search controllers. © 2005 IEEE
