Abstract
A method for determining the task load in real-time. The method takes a difference in real-time between a first count value from a free running counter prior to a task executing, and a second count value after the task stops running. The task load may then be determined by using an accumulator to accumulate the difference between the first count value and the second count value over a reference interval and dividing the sum by a configurable reference interval. The individual task load computed in real-time may be used in scheduling an audio task.
