Embedded systems must be cost-effective. This imposes strict requirements on the resource consumption of their applications. It is therefore desirable to be able to determine the ...
Commodity hardware and software are growing increasingly more complex, with advances such as chip heterogeneity and specialization, deeper memory hierarchies, ne-grained power ma...
We study Reader-Writer Exclusion [1], a well-known variant of the Mutual Exclusion problem [2] where processes are divided into two classes–readers and writers–and multiple re...
