| Abstract | Scheduling of tasks takes into account the priority of the tasks and the available laxity among other factors. Laxity is a measure of slack time. Generally, the available slack time is cumulated and uniformly distributed among all tasks, irrespective of priority. However, a better approach would be to distribute the slack time to tasks in proportion to their priority, giving rise to non-uniform laxity distribution. Also, these parameters may not always be specified precisely. In such situations, these parameters can be specified as approximate linguistic variables and handled through the fuzzy inference engine. Fuzzification is used as a tool to obtain the execution eligibility from the input linguistic variables. The execution eligibility is the order in which tasks are dispatched to the execution queue. Based on the execution eligibility, the tasks are scheduled. The remaining time, if available after scheduling the task, is cumulated as slack time. A task is always scheduled based on minimum execution time allotted. If a task misses its deadline due to inadequate resources, the difference between scheduled time i. e., (Arrival time + minimum execution time) and deadline is computed. If this amount of time is available in the cumulated slack, a relative deadline is set by adding the deadline to the slack needed, and the task is scheduled. If slack is not available in the cumulated slack, the task misses its deadline. The objective of this approach is to ensure that a task with higher execution eligibility does not miss its deadline, when slack time is available. The algorithm presented in this paper has been simulated on Cheddar, a real time scheduling tool, and also on SESC, an architectural simulator for multicore platforms. The algorithm has been tested for about 50 task sets comprising of 1000 random tasks and the number of cores have been varied to 100. The algorithm using non-uniform laxity approach with fuzzification improves slack time utilisation by 40% and increases the number of tasks scheduled by 47%, compared to the algorithm using non-uniform laxity approach without fuzzification. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
