Can every feasible periodic scheduling instance be reduced to one with a universal cap on its longest period?
1 record · How we rate progress
The artifact reports (3,4,5,20,22,36) schedulable but (3,4,5,20,22,32) unschedulable, refuting the proposed six-task kernel cap.

Can every feasible periodic scheduling instance be reduced to one with a universal cap on its longest period?
Why it matters
A precise target for comparing mathematical claims, their baselines, and the documented contribution of AI.
What counts as progress
A sourced theorem, construction, algorithm, bound, or substantive formalization with its assumptions and AI role stated.
What to watch for
- Check the exact hypotheses and compare with the stated prior baseline.
- Distinguish a source claim, an available proof, and a reproduced verification.
- Retain human contributions, competing work, corrections, and withdrawals.
