This paper presents a new methodology for implementing fast synchronization on scalable cache-coherent multiprocessors, through the use of hybrid primitives. Hybrid primitives lev...

We investigate the preemptive scheduling of periodic tasks with hard deadlines. We show that, even in the uniprocessor case, no polynomial time algorithm can test the feasibility ...

We consider coordinating accesses to shared data structures in multiprocessor real-time systems scheduled under preemptive global EDF. To our knowledge, prior work on global EDF h...

Reader preference, writer preference, and task-fair reader-writer locks are shown to cause undue blocking in multiprocessor real-time systems. Phase-fair reader writer locks, a ne...
—Chip-multiprocessors represent a dominant new shift in the field of processor design. Better utilization of such technology in the real-time context requires coordinated approa...
