This paper focuses on priority assignment for realtime systems using fixed priority scheduling. It introduces and defines the concept of a “robust” priority ordering: the most...
This paper is an extended version of a paper that appeared in the proceedings of the IEEE Real-Time Systems Symposium 2009. This paper has been updated with respect to advances ma...
Energy consumption has become an increasingly important consideration in designing many real-time embedded systems. Variable voltage processors, if used properly, can dramatically...
This paper presents the design and implementation of RT-EP (Real-Time Ethernet Protocol), which is a software-based token-passing Ethernet protocol for multipoint communications in...
—Wormhole switching with fixed priority preemption has been proposed as a possible solution for real-time on-chip communication. However, none of current priority assignment pol...
