This is a bad, hardcoded paths are not suitable, can you please find another way
to code that?

can you isolate each bloc into a different function for a matter of clarity and
modularity. this will make the schedule function less huge.

Line 268: for (iter2 = serviceFlows->begin(); iter2 != serviceFlows->end();
++iter2)
those two for loops can be factorized into one function taking a serviceFlows
and returning a boolean, this will make the code more modular

http://codereview.appspot.com/107047/diff/1/10#newcode302
Line 302: for (iter2 = serviceFlows->begin(); iter2 != serviceFlows->end();

same for these two for loops, they are pretty much copy and paste code.

please remove all the commented code!

bs)
you can call the constructor with parameter from the constructor with void, i.e.

UplinkSchedulerRtps::UplinkSchedulerRtps ()
  {
    UplinkSchedulerRtps (0);
}
you avoid this way copy and paste.

http://codereview.appspot.com/107047/diff/1/27#newcode94
Line 94: for now temporarily assuming DCD/UCD shall be updated everytime */
this code have been used also in the other file, copy and paste is an easy way
but for maintainibility, it's not convenient at all, anyway, please update the
comments here and think about a way to make it more modular.

again this function is too huge. modularity
