The high sample-rates involved in many DSP-applications, require the use of static schedulers wherever possible. The construction of static schedules however is classically limited to applications that fit in the synchronous data flow model. In this paper we present cyclo-static data flow as a model to describe applications with a cyclically changing behaviour and build a static schedule for them as well. We also propose a new scheduling method for both multi-rate and cyclo-static applications. Characteristic for this method is that the graph does not need to be transformed into a single-rate equivalent. The new scheduling technique has been implemented in GRAPE-II (Graphical RApid Prototyping Environment).
