Earliest Deadline First - C program

Earliest Deadline First

Wrote a very simple EDF scheduler as a part of RTOS curriculum. It is recommended to compile the program with GCC. The old Turbo C too will work 😝 Hope you like it. 😄

Use the following command to compile in GCC.

$ gcc main.c func_def.c  -o EDF

Sample

Tasks	Arrival	Execution	Deadline	Period
T1	1	3	6	9
T2	3	2	5	12
T3	4	4	10	16
