Efficient multiprocessor scheduling is pivotal in optimizing the performance of parallel computing systems. This paper leverages the power of Petri nets and the tool GPenSIM to model and simulate a variety of multiprocessor scheduling algorithms (the basic algorithms such as first come first serve, shortest job first, and round robin, and more sophisticated schedulers like multi-level feedback queue and Linux’s completely fair scheduler). This paper presents the evaluation of three crucial performance metrics in multiprocessor scheduling (such as turnaround time, response time, and throughput) under various scheduling algorithms. However, the primary focus of the paper is to develop a robust simulation platform consisting of Petri Modules to facilitate the dynamic representation of concurrent processes, enabling us to explore the real-time interactions and dependencies in a multiprocessor environment; more advanced and newer schedulers can be tested with the simulation platform presented in this paper.
