Symmetric Multiprocessors (SMPs), combined with modern interconnection technologies are commonly used to build cost-effective compute clusters. However, contention among processor...
When the processing times of jobs are controllable, selected processing times affect both the manufacturing cost and the scheduling performance.A well-known example for such a cas...
This paper introduces an exact schedulability analysis for the optional computation model urider a specified failure hypothesis. From this analysis, we propose a solutionfor deter...
Abstract. Autonomic computing networks manage multiple tasks over a distributed network of resources. In this paper, we view an autonomic computing system as a network of queues, w...
Many embedded systems are designed to take timely reactions to the occurrences of interested scenarios. Sometimes transient overloads might be experienced due to hardware malfunct...
