Abstract
A data processing system includes a server which has a task scheduler for receiving task requests for access, and granting access to system resources based upon a multidimensional scheduling technique wherein groups of tasks are assigned a priority level within a priority scheme, and within each group round robin scheduling assures each task will have access to system resources in turn and a dynamically programmable technique for responding to requests from time-dependent isochronous requests for system resources.
