— This paper presents a new power management technique integrated into a multithreaded microcontroller with builtin real-time scheduling schemes. Power management is done by hard...
We consider the issue of deadline tardiness under global multiprocessor scheduling algorithms. We present a general tardiness-bound derivation that is applicable to a wide variety...
In a heap model, solid blocks, or pieces, pile up according to the Tetris game mechanism. An optimal schedule is an in nite sequence of pieces minimizing the asymptotic growth rat...
This paper presents a hierarchical approach on the simulation of large-scale discrete event systems used recently by Kiran Consulting Group (KCG) to model shipyard operations. Bec...
—The growth of the Internet in the last years has been pushed by increasing requirements in terms of capacity, security and reliability. Moreover, improvements in multimedia appl...
