Simulation of scheduling test for rhythmic task model with a case study

The conventional task models include periodic tasks, aperiodic tasks and sporadic tasks. A task model named rhythmic task is required for Cyber Physical Systems (CPS). Here, a Smart Energy Management System (SEMS) in a house, which monitors and controls the electrical appliances based on their power demand, has been considered as the CPS. The temperature control of air conditioner, which has high priority, is the rhythmic task. Sensing of temperature, pressure, etc, are periodic tasks. This paper deals with the schedulability test for a combined model of rhythmic and periodic tasks of SEMS. The test had been simulated and the given task set was found to be schedulable.
