Redirected from Earliest dealine first scheduling
Compared to static scheduling, like rate-monotonic scheduling, earliest dealine first will generally perform better, utilizing up to 100% of the CPU time. (When scheduling processor allocation time.) However, it doesn't consider priorities, and once processes start missing their deadlines, the system will be completely unpredictable.
