Technology scaling has offered advantages to embedded systems, such as increased performance, more available memory and reduced energy consumption. However, scaling also brings a...
— In this paper, we develop contention-based medium access control (MAC) schemes for both best-effort data transmissions and delay-sensitive multimedia transmissions over WLANs. ...

Schedulability analysis for hard real-time systems requires bounds on the execution times of its tasks. To obtain useful bounds in the presence of caches, static timing analyses mu...
Distributed real-time systems require a predictable and verifiable mechanism to control the communication medium. Current real-time communication protocols are typically independe...
Deadlock detection scheduling is an important, yet oft-overlooked problem that can significantly affect the overall performance of deadlock handling. An excessive initiation of ...
