Abstract

Dynamical phenomena that adversely affect single-processor control systems have been reported. Queue lengths may show heavy oscillations due to so called traffic synchronization effects caused by an inappropriate priority scheme. A brief summary of these investigations is given. Single-processor systems in which traffic synchronization effects may arise due to a job having to be served several times are discussed. It is shown that in multiprocessor control systems similar effects can be caused by the mechanism that distributes jobs to processors
