Real-time embedded systems are increasingly being networked. In distributed real-time embedded applications, e.g., electric grid management and command and control applications, i...
Managing energy consumption has become vitally important to battery operated portable and embedded systems. A dynamic voltage scaling (DVS) technique reduces the processor’s dyn...
Transactional memory is a promising, optimistic synchronization mechanism for chip-multiprocessor systems. The simplicity of atomic sections, instead of using explicit locks, is al...
This paper describes experiences in using an O.O. language (Java) in designing, prototyping and evaluating a CPU manager. QoS Animator facilitates the execution of object oriented...
The majority of today’s Internet-based services are generally not concerned about the level of Quality of Service (QoS) presented to their users. For many such services, however...
