The problem to be solved involves the following: -Accepting information about the durations, deadlines and other required information of the activities. -From the available scheduling algorithms, picking the most appropriate one. -Analysing the underlying assumption associated with the algorithm. -Performing schedulability analysis on the given set of activities. -Generating the possible sequence of the given task set by the chosen scheduling principle. -Illustrating the generated sequence. The developed tool makes it possible to display achievable schedules for a system based on the associated information with the activities concerned using various scheduling principles. The program's ability to simulate the behaviour of shared resource from a scheduling viewpoint makes it ideal as an instructive tool." }
