Combinations of evolutionary based approaches with local search have provided very good results for a variety of scheduling problems. This paper describes the development of such a...
Application-specific customization of the instruction set helps embedded processors achieve significant performance and power efficiency. In this paper, we explore customizatio...
We present an approach to the synthesis of fault-tolerant hard real-time systems for safety-critical applications. We use checkpointing with rollback recovery and active replicati...

The car sequencing problem involves scheduling cars along an assembly line while satisfying capacity constraints. In this paper, we describe an Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) algor...
We show that CSMA is able to spontaneously synchronize transmissions in a wireless network with constant-size packets, and that this property can be used to devise efficient synch...
