Abstract—Recent results have shown that the feasibility problem of scheduling periodic tasks with self-suspensions is NPhard in the strong sense. We observe that a variation of t...
The SPIN model checker and its specification language Promela have been used extensively in industry and academia to check logical properties of distributed algorithms and protoc...
Abstract. We present a new “lifting” approach for the solution of nonlinear optimization problems (NLPs) that have objective and constraint functions with intermediate variable...
Abstract-- This work deals with devising a secure, powerefficient, beam-steerable and on-chip transmission system for wireless sensor networks. A passively controllable smart (PCS)...
