A real-time system must execute functionally correct computations in a timely manner. In order to guarantee that all tasks accepted in the system will meet their timing requirements, an admission control algorithm must be used to only accept tasks whose requirements can be satisfied. Rate-monotonic scheduling (RMS) is arguably the best known scheduling policy for periodic real-time tasks on uni...

In this paper, the periodic, quasi periodic and chaotic responses of rotational machines with a hexagonal centrifugal governor are studied. The external disturbance is assumed as a sinusoid effect. By using the forth order Rung-Kutta numerical integration method, bifurcation diagram, largest Lyapunov exponent and Lyapunov dimension are calculated and presented to detect the critical controlling...
