Volunteer Computing (VC) is a paradigm that takes advantage of idle cycles from computing resources donated by volunteers and connected through the Internet to compute large-scale...
This paper discusses why the extensive scientific results on predicting embedded systems temporal behavior never, or very seldom, reaches the industrial community. We also point ou...
We consider the problem of scheduling on-line a sequence of degradable intervals in a set of k identical machines. Our objective is to find a schedule that maximizes simultaneousl...

Data aggregation scheduling, or convergecast, is a fundamental pattern of communication in wireless sensor networks (WSNs), where sensor nodes aggregate and relay data to a sink no...
Motivated by applications in batch scheduling of jobs in manufacturing systems and distributed computing, we study two related problems. Given is a set of jobs {J1, . . . , Jn}, w...
