Abstract. This paper presents two new approaches to prove termination of rewrite systems with the Knuth-Bendix order efficiently. The constraints for the weight function and for th...
We consider Discrete Event Systems (DES) involving tasks with real-time constraints and seek to control processing times so as to minimize a cost function subject to each task mee...
ABSTRACT. Cost-effective reconfiguration in ODBMSs is difficult to achieve due to the tradeoff between modularity and efficiency. Existing ODBMS designs offer limited reconfigurabi...
Several research efforts as well as deployments have chosen IEEE 802.11 as a low-cost, long-distance access technology to bridge the digital divide. In this paper, we consider the...
This paper addresses the problem of component selection, task assignment and task scheduling for distributed embedded computer systems. Such systems have a large number of constra...
