A simple mutual exclusion algorithm is presented that only uses nonatomic shared variables of bounded size, and that satisfies bounded overtaking. When the shared variables behave...
Effective system verification requires good specifications. The lack of sufficient specifications can lead to misses of critical bugs, design re-spins, and time-to-market slips. I...
In a real planning problem, there exists a set of constraints (both temporal constraints and resource usage constraints) which must be satisfied in order to obtain a feasible plan....
