Stochastic analysis techniques for real-time systems model the execution time of tasks as random variables. These techniques constitute a very powerful tool to study the behaviour...
Evaluating the complexity of business processes during the early stages of their development, primarily during the process modelling phase, provides organizations and stakeholder w...
In this paper, we propose an equivalent model in a serial queue for representing the serial connection of the load balancer and a Web server of the Web cluster. We have set up an ...
From a real-time perspective, the Garbage Collector (GC) introduces unpredictable pauses that are not tolerated by real-time tasks. Real-time collectors eliminate this problem but...
A common problem encountered in signboard recognition is the perspective distortion of characters. In this paper, we propose a method which is able to directly recognize character...
