The design of safety-critical systems has typically adopted static techniques to simplify error detection and fault tolerance. However, economic pressure to reduce costs is exposi...
Multimedia scheduling models provide a rich variety of tools for managing the synchronization of media like video and audio, but generally have an inflexible model for time itself...
Different distributed real-time systems (DRS) must handle aperiodic and periodic events under diverse sets of requirements. While existing middleware such as Real-Time CORBA has sh...
This paper proposes a new methodology to schedule activities in projects with stochastic activity durations. The main idea is to determine for each activity an interval in which th...
In this paper we analyze the traditional model of interrupt management and its inability to incorporate the reliability and temporal predictability demanded by real-time systems. ...
