This work introduces a methodology to consider preemption and migration overhead in hard real-time cyclic executives on multicore architectures. The approach performs two iterative stages. The first stage takes a cyclic executive, from which the number and timing of all preemptions and migrations for every task is known. Then, it includes this overhead by updating the worst-case execution time (WCET) of the tasks. The second stage calculates a new cyclic executive considering the new WCET of tasks. The stages iterate until the preemption and migration overhead keeps constant.
