—We design and implement Soft-TDMAC, a software Time Division Multiple Access (TDMA) based MAC protocol, running over commodity 802.11 hardware. Soft-TDMAC has a synchronization ...
This paper presents a novel approach to scheduling of hardware supported synchronization operations. The optimization goal is to minimize the interation time of processes and thus...
The Time Warp protocol is considered to be an effective synchronization mechanism for parallel discrete event simulation (PDES). However, it is widely recognized that it suffers o...
Component-based operating systems enable embedded systems to adapt system policies, mechanisms, and abstractions to the specific workloads and contexts of each system. The scope o...
Abstract: This paper proposes a strategy to manage the schedulability of realtime component-based applications that is fully compatible with the concept of component viewed as a re...
