Attacks exploiting race conditions have been considered rare and “low risk”. However, the increasing popularity of multiprocessors has changed this situation: instead of waiti...
While most prior work on multiprocessor real-time scheduling focuses on independent tasks, dependencies due to non-preemptive sections, suspensions, and pipelinebased precedence c...
Reader preference, writer preference, and task-fair readerwriter locks are shown to cause undue blocking in multiprocessor real-time systems. A new phase-fair reader-writer lock i...
Abstract-- In a high-end database system, the execution concurrency level rises continuously in a multiprocessor environment due to the increase in number of concurrent transaction...
The heterogeneous multiprocessor task partitioning with replication problem involves determining a mapping of recurring tasks upon a set consisting of different processing units i...
