Load balancing is often used to ensure that nodes in a distributed systems are equally loaded. In this paper, we show that for real-time systems, load balancing is not desirable. ...
This report describes a necessary and sufficient test for the schedulability of a set of sporadic harddeadline tasks on a multiprocessor platform, using any of a variety of schedu...
Abstract. Control for agents situated in multi-agent systems is a complex problem. This is particularly true in hard, open, dynamic environments where resource, privacy, bandwidth,...
We analyze the integration of automatic memory management in a real-time context. We focus on integrating a real-time (copying) garbage collector with hard real-time static-priori...
CPU utilization control has recently been demonstrated to be an effective way of meeting end-to-end deadlines for distributed real-time systems running in unpredictable environmen...
