Fairness is an important performance criterion in all resource allocation schemes, including those in distributed computer systems. However, it is often specified only qualitativel...
We have developed a theory of sharing which captures the behaviour of programs with respect to shared data into the framework of process algebra. The core theory can describe prog...
This paper presents the implementation of a dualpriority scheduling algorithm for real-time embedded systems on a shared memory multiprocessor on FPGA. The dual-priority microkern...

Collaborative applications provide a group of users with the facility to communicate and share data in a coordinate way. In this paper we propose a pattern system to design the ba...
We explore the problem of secret-key distribution in unidirectional channels, those in which a sender transmits information blindly to a receiver. We consider two approaches: (1) ...
