SYSTEM AND METHOD THEREOF TO OPTIMIZE BOOT TIME OF COMPUTERS HAVING MULTIPLE CPUS

摘要

Disclosed is method and system for optimizing a boot time of a computer system with at least one CPU, in response to a boot command. The system comprises of a memory and a processor. The processor executes a set of instructions stored in the memory to access a task description chart (TDC) comprising a set of essential tasks related to the booting of the system. The TDC is processed offline to create two sets of scheduling charts Viz., Independent Task Chart (ITC) and Dependent Task chart (DTC). The ITC includes all the independent tasks and the DTC includes all the dependent tasks. The DTC is further divided into DTC1 and DTC2. The tasks from all the charts are selected for execution based on the priority. The proposed method and system solves the scheduling overhead problem of the system during the boot process, by optimizing the scheduling process.
