  • Abstract
    A special-purpose task scheduler is described which is suitable for many dedicated, real-time minicomputer and microcomputer applications. The scheduling algorithm is presented in detail. A brief discussion of a basic interrupt-driven real-time executive (RTE) is also included. Its memory size is estimated at about 1 kbyte, using the Intel 8080 instruction set.
