The next generation of computing systems will be embedded, in a virtually unbounded number, and dynamically connected. The current software, network architectures, and their assoc...
Current processor allocation techniques for highly parallel systems are based on centralized front-end based algorithms. As a result, the applied strategies are restricted to stat...
Abstract: The object-oriented (OO) distributed realtime (RT) programming movement started in 1990's and is growing rapidly at this turn of the century. The motivations are rev...
