Then trying to get a system which is robust to communication errors I 
investigated the scheduling and found out that Earliest Deadline First 
scheduling quite recently have been part of the ordinary kernel. I have seen 
linuxcnc currently use "SCHED_FIFO" and the new is "SCHED_DEADLINE" which use 
the Earliest Deadline First scheme.

Here are two links to scheduling schemes which may contain a useful background 
or introduction to the topic:
