The simple notion of soft real-time processing has fractured into a spectrum of diverse soft real-time types with a variety of different resource and time constraints. Schedulers ...

Soft real-time sporadic multiprocessor task systems are considered that include processing pipelines. Conditions are presented for guaranteeing bounded deadline tardiness in such ...
We present a soft real-time CPU server for Continuous Media processing in the UNIX environment. The server is a daemon process from which applications can request and acquire soft...
Reader preference, writer preference, and task-fair readerwriter locks are shown to cause undue blocking in multiprocessor real-time systems. A new phase-fair reader-writer lock i...
In work on multiprocessor real-time systems, task scheduling with self-suspensions is a relatively unexplored topic. In this paper, soft real-time sporadic task systems are consid...
