Priority Based Pre-emptive Task Scheduling for Android Operating System

preprint2013arXivOpen access

Abstract

Android mobile operating system which is based on Linux Kernel 2.6, has open source license and adaptability to user driven applications. As all other operating systems it has all the basic features like process scheduling, memory management, process management etc associated with it. Any mobile platform works smoothly when the process scheduling is performed in a proper way. Ideal platform is that in which no resource conflict occurs. Thus scheduling in every manner is essential for the operating system to adapt itself with the requirement of a particular application. In this paper, priority based pre-emptive task scheduling is proposed for the SMS application. The idea is to define High priority to required contacts, for ex. Contact numbers of parents or teachers will be given High priority. If in case, any SMS from these High priority contacts is received, the application would flash the SMS on the active screen and redirect this High priority SMS to the Priority Inbox.
