Abstract
A method of managing processor usage time includes: associating each application with a slice of the processor time and with a first or second class; and managing the processor time as a function of the processor time slices and classes. The processor time slice associated with an application of the first class is reserved for the application even if the application does not use it fully. An application of the second class has priority for using the processor during its associated time slice, wherein if part of the associated time slice is not used by the application, the unused part may be used by another application of the second class, the application being able to use more than its associated time slice by using an unused part of a time slice associated with another application of the second class or a part of a time slice associated with no application.
