The power consumption of peripheral devices is a significant portion of the overall energy usage of a mobile platform. To take advantage of idle times, most devices offer the abi...
We present a task model for adaptive real-time tasks in which a task's execution rate requirements are allowed to change at any time. The model, variable rate execution (VRE)...
Component-based operating systems enable embedded systems to adapt system policies, mechanisms, and abstractions to the specific workloads and contexts of each system. The scope o...
End-to-end rate-based congestion control algorithms are advocated for audio/video transport over the Internet instead of window-based protocols. Once the congestion controller has ...
To achieve better throughput, many hard drive manufacturers use internal queues and scheduling to take advantage of vendor-specific characteristics and knowledge. While this tren...
