Abstract

In the last few years, it has become profound to achieve higher performance of computers by solely upgrading logic technology. This required a move to a parallel processing system or a multiprocessor system in order to build faster computer systems. The importance of multiprocessor systems is increasing due to many reasons, one of which is reliability. In a multiprocessor system, a number of tasks may concurrently exist. To operate the system efficiently, one must carefully schedule the tasks. This thesis proposes a set of algorithms to schedule these tasks exploiting the inherent redundancy of processors in a multiprocessor system. Also discussed are some reliability issues and application to different networks with some examples.
