Developers of mission-critical distributed real-time and embedded (DRE) systems face a fundamental tension between (1) the performance gains achievable with hand-crafted optimizat...

We consider Discrete Event Systems (DES) involving tasks with real-time constraints and seek to control processing times so as to minimize a cost function subject to each task mee...
Recently, a number of frameworks were proposed to extend interface theory to the domains of single-processor and distributed real-time systems. This paper unifies some of these ap...

Policies form an important part of management and can be an effective means of implementing self-adaptation in pervasive systems. Most policy-based systems focus on large-scale ne...

Real-time control has become increasingly important as technologies are moved from the lab into real world situations. The complexity associated with these systems increases as co...
