Icon for articleUsing a Resource Kernel to Improve Linux QoS
Date Listed: Oct 27, 2000
This talk explored alternative ways to guarantee quality-of-service (QoS) and introduces the concept of a Resource Kernel a means to provide OS-based guarantees. Shortcomings of Linux relative to QoS and Resource Kernel requirements were discussed, and alternative approaches to address them were reviewed. Examples were given of run-time behavior with and without a Resource Kernel, and an example real-time resource kernel Linux distribution was used to demonstrate the role a Resource Kernel can play in ensuring QoS, and to illustrate the difference made by hard and soft utility function parameters on run-time behavior.
Presented at the Embedded Linux Expo and Conference, October 27, 2000.
