A new multiagent programmingparadigm based on the transactional logic model' is developed. This paradigm enables us to construct a Distributed agent transactional program (DA...
This paper deals with specific issues related to the design of distributed embedded systems implemented with mixed, event-triggered and time-triggered task sets, which communicate...
An important scheduling problem is the one in which there are no dependencies between tasks and the tasks can be of arbitrary size. This is known as the divisible load scheduling ...
In this paper we consider the problem of designing load balancing protocols in distributed systems where the participants (e.g. computers, users) are capable of manipulating the l...
