We present a framework (Real-Time Calculus) for analysing various system properties pertaining to timing analysis, loads on various components and on-chip buffer memory requiremen...
—The growing trend towards using component based design approach in embedded system development requires addressing newer system engineering challenges. These systems are usually...
The notion of time granularity comes into play in a variety of problems involving time representation and management in database applications, including temporal database design, t...
Abstract. We introduce the class of event-clock visibly pushdown automata (ECVPAs) as an extension of event-clock automata. The class of ECVPAs, on one hand, can model simple real-...
Failure detectors are commonly viewed as abstractions for the synchronism present in distributed system models. However, investigations into the exact amount of synchronism encapsu...
