As the number of people browsing the world-wide web increases explosively, workload of popular web servers also increases rapidly. A multicomputer system that was designed for I/O...
A distributed protocol is proposed for the synchronization of real-time tasks that have variable resource requirements. The protocol is simple to implement and is intended for lar...
In this paper we present a new technique which exploits timing-correlation between tasks for scheduling analysis in multiprocessor and distributed systems with tree-shaped task-de...
Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs) have long held the promise of allowing designers to create systems with performance levels close to custom circuits but with a software-like...
Non-blocking synchronization has significant advantages over blocking synchronization: however, it has not been used to a significant degree in practice. We designed and implement...
