We present a multiprocessor scheduling framework for integrating hard and soft real-time tasks and best-effort jobs. This framework allows for full system utilization, and ensures...
Performance guarantees can be given to tasks in an embedded system by ensuring that access to each shared resource is mediated by an appropriate scheduler. However, almost all pre...
Although an optimistic approach has been shown to be better than locking protocols for real-time database systems (RTDBS), it has the problems of unnecessary restarts and heavy re...
In a component-based development approach system integration generally implies the packaging and deployment of a group of software components on hardware units, possibly hiding th...
Scenario-based design exploits the time-varying execution behavior of applications by dynamically adapting the system on which they run. This is a particularly interesting design ...
