Wireless and portable devices depend on the limited power supplied by the battery. Dynamic Voltage Scaling (DVS) is an effective method to reduce CPU power consumption. For real-t...
—Increasing integrated circuit (IC) power densities and temperatures may hamper multiprocessor system-on-chip (MPSoC) use in hard real-time systems. This article formalizes the t...

—Hardware-managed caches introduce large amounts of timing variability, complicating real-time system design. One alternative is a memory system with scratchpad memories which im...
Slowdown based on dynamic voltage scaling (DVS) provides the ability to perform an energy-delay tradeoff in the system. Non-preemptive scheduling becomes an integral part of syste...
A reward-based task typically consists of a mandatory part that must be accomplished before the given deadline, and an optional part that is associated with rewards for partial co...
