Clusters of networked, off-the-shelf workstations are currently used for computationintensive, parallel applications. However, it is hardly possible to predict the timing behaviou...
If parallelism can be successfully exploited in a program, significant reductions in execution time can be achieved. However, if sections of the code are dominated by parallel ove...
This work presents the first worst-case execution times (WCET) analysis of MPEG-decoding. Solutions for two scenarios (Video-on-Demand (VoD), live) are presented, serving as exam...

Abstract— Feedback control laws are predominantly implemented on digital platforms as periodic tasks. Although periodicity simplifies the analysis and design of the implementati...
—To provide flexibility in deploying new protocols and services, general-purpose processing engines are being placed in the datapath of routers. Such network processors are typi...
Many industrial real-time systems have evolved over a long period of time and were initially so simple that it was possible to predict consequences of adding new functionality by ...

Abstract. We study schedulability problems of timed systems with nonuniformly recurring computation tasks. Assume a set of real time tasks whose best and worst execution times, and...
It is well known that in a typical real-time system, certain parameters, such as the execution time of a job, are not fixed numbers. In such systems, it is common to characterize ...
There exist many application classes for which the users have significant flexibility in the quality of output they desire. At the same time, there are other constraints, such a...
