Evaluation and applicability of many database techniques, ranging from access methods, histograms, and optimization strategies to data normalization and mining, crucially depend o...
Abstract. In this paper we describe ConStruct, a distributed, contextaggregation based service infrastructure which supports the development of context-aware applications. ConStruc...
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...
Large-scale distributed real-time systems are increasingly difficult to analyze within the Rate Monotonic Analysis framework. This is due partly to their heterogeneity, complex i...
We propose a tunable scheduling strategy that lies between FIFO and shortest- rst, based on the value of a coe cient Alpha. If Alpha is set to zero then this strategy is just FIFO....
