While resource management and task scheduling are identified challenges of Grid computing, current Grid scheduling systems mainly focus on CPU and network availability. Recent per...
It is well known that in a typical real-time system, certain parameters, such as the execution time of a job, are not fixed numbers. In such systems, it is common to characterize ...
We study the problem of optimal preemptive scheduling with respect to a general target function. Given n jobs with associated weights and m ≤ n uniformly related machines, one a...
Our goal is to automatically obtain a distributed and fault-tolerant embedded system: distributed because the system must run on a distributed architecture; fault-tolerant because...
Exploiting instruction-level parallelism (ILP) is extremely important for achieving high performance in application specific instruction set processors (ASIPs) and embedded proces...
