New approach for SMS module using Ranked based Pre-emptive Job Scheduling Algorithm (original) (raw)

— In the recent years, mobile phones has become one of the most essential electronic device in our day to day life. Just like other electronic devices, mobile phones too works on OS. The most commonly used OS are Android mobile OS and Windows mobile OS. Android Mobile OS is an open source platform and was developed by Google based on Linux kernel. Windows Mobile OS was developed by Microsoft Corporation which is a closed source platform and it is deemed as a new generation of the OS, it is definitely an OS that we need to look out for. Windows mobile OS uses Windows CE based architecture at kernel level. Just like its counterparts it provides basic functionalities like process scheduling, file management, memory management, resource allocation etc. Out of this, process scheduling plays an important role in overall performance of any OS because an ideal platform is that in which no resource conflict arises. In this paper we aim to focus on applying Ranked based pre-emptive job scheduling algorithm on SMS application of Windows mobile OS. Here user affix high ranked to certain contacts, say frequently used contacts like parents or teachers or friends, in such cases if an SMS from these contacts are received the proposed application would render a pop-up notification displaying this high ranked message by interrupting ongoing job on the screen. In turn the high ranked message would be redirected towards and saved in ranked inbox instead of default in box, so that the user can easily access the message as and when required.
