Event-driven systems and thread-driven systems are two major design philosophies of operating system in wireless sensor networks. Systems based on multi-threaded are more timeliness than the event-driven systems, which can meet the requirements of time-critical tasks by means of task preemption, while systems based on event-driven are more energy efficient.The article introduces a task scheduling module in event-driven system. The module takes a kind of priority table query method to choose the most important task with highest priority to schedule.It is seen that the module is suitable wireless sensor network.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
