Developers of mission-critical distributed real-time and embedded (DRE) systems face a fundamental tension between (1) the performance gains achievable with hand-crafted optimizat...

For economic reasons, a new trend in the development of distributed hard real-time systems is to rely on the use of CommercialO -The-Shelf cots hardware and operating systems. As...

One of the hard problems in maintaining real-time systems requirements is to keep track of the impact of resource usage on the applications. Often times, it is not sufficient to ...
In this paper we present improved techniques for the schedulability analysis of tasks with precedence relations in multiprocessor and distributed systems, scheduled under a preemp...
We show the difficulties that arise for the implementation of a real-time garbage collector in a multi-threaded system. A mechanism for synchronization between threads and the gar...
