This paper investigates retiming and clock skew scheduling for improving the tolerance of synchronous circuits to delay variations. It is shown that when both long and short paths...
Now that multicore microprocessors have become a commodity, it is natural to think about employing them in all kinds of computing, including high-reliability embedded real-time sy...
Certain hard real-time tasks demand precise timing of events, but the usual software solution of periodic interrupts driving a scheduler only provides precision in the millisecond ...
Scheduling is one of the most successful application areas of constraint programming mainly thanks to special global constraints designed to model resource restrictions. Among thes...
Due to its important practical applications, temporal planning is of great research interest in artificial intelligence. Yet most of the work in this area so far is limited in at...
