IP over optical networks controlled by the GMPLS control plane have become the common infrastructure for a variety of services, such as triple play and grid applications. The traff...
Energy is one of the limited resources for modern systems, especially the battery-operated devices and personal digital assistants. The backlog in new technologies for more powerf...
Many real-time applications, such as traffic control systems, surveillance systems and health monitoring systems, need to operate on continuous unbounded streams of data. These ap...
Certainly, in hard real-time systems, it is reasonable to argue that no hard real-time threads should behave in an unpredictable way and that schedulability should be guaranteed b...

We address in this paper the problem of scheduling for multiprocessor real-time systems with hard and soft tasks. Utility functions are associated to soft tasks to capture their r...
