Current hard real-time scheduling and analysis techniques are unable to efficiently utilize the computational bandwidth provided by multicore platforms. This is due to the large gap between worst-case execution time predictions used in schedulability analysis and actual execution times seen in practice. In this paper, we view this gap as ``slack'' that can be accounted for during schedulability analysis and reclaimed for less critical work. We use this technique to develop an architecture for scheduling mixed criticality real-time workloads on multiprocessor platforms. Our architecture provides temporal isolation among tasks of different criticalities while allowing slack to be redistributed across criticality levels.
