Unit commitment is a complex decision-making process because of multiple constraints which must not be violated while nding the optimal or a near-optimal commitment schedule. This...
Delivered end-to-end QoS is often limited by the ineffective resource management at Internet end systems. To overcome this problem, we present a resource allocation framework tha...
Let P be a combinatorial optimization problem, and let A be an approximation algorithm for P. The domination ratio domr(A, s) is the maximal real q such that the solution x(I) obt...
In this paper, we propose a methodology for developing component-based real-time systems based on the concept of hierarchical scheduling. Recently, much work has been devoted to t...
Safety-critical real-time standards define several criticality levels for the tasks (e.g., DO-178B - Software Considerations in Airborne Systems and Equipment Certification). Clas...
