As computing systems of all types grow in power and complexity, it is common to want to simultaneously execute processes with different timeliness constraints. Many systems use CP...
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...
The scheduling of application tasks is a problem that occurs in all multiprocessor systems. This problem becomes even more complicated if the tasks are not independent but are inte...
Several methods have been proposed for handling nonlinear constraints by evolutionary algorithms for numerical optimization problems; a survey paper [7] provides an overview of var...
Naive parallel implementation of nondeterministic systems (such as a theorem proving system) and languages (such as a logic, constraint, or a concurrent constraint language)can re...
