Real-time scheduling under time-interval constraints

This paper presents a new task model where jobs are divided into segments A, B and C. Segment B has a specific time-interval where it should execute to fulfill some application constraints. We consider the execution of B as valid if performed inside that time-interval, otherwise, its contribution may be valueless to its task. We adapt some scheduling approaches from the literature and present a feasibility test in terms of expected QoS for our scheduling problem.
