            Abstract : 
In the design of distributed computer systems, especially real time distributed systems the scheduling problem is considered to be an important one. First, the problem of testing feasibility for a set of time critical tasks that run on each node-processor machine locally has been studied. The acceptance tests and the scheduling algorithms are described as follows: scheduling sporadic tasks within idle times; scheduling periodic tasks as late as possible; scheduling periodic and sporadic tasks together. Second, the problem of tasks which haven´t been executed locally in the node is studied. There are three algorithms for cooperation to be evaluated in the distributed system: the focused addressing algorithm; the bidding algorithm; the flexible algorithm. The results show that distributed scheduling is effective in a hard real time environment.<>
