Distributed Real-Time Embedded systems (DRE) increasingly rely on COTS middleware to meet their distribution needs. Yet, there is a technology gap between the design of COTS middl...
The Real-Time Specification for Java (RTSJ) provides a platform for the development of real-time applications. However, the RTSJ does not take the distribution requirements of re...
This paper focuses on a technique to empower commercial-off-the-shelf (COTS) systems with an execution environment, and corresponding services, to support realtime and embedded ap...
We propose a novel work partitioning technique, Image Layer Decomposition (ILD), designed specifically to support distributed real-time rendering on commodity clusters. ILD has s...
Low-level support of peripheral devices is one of the most demanding activities in a real-time operating system. In fact, the rapid development of new interface boards causes a tr...
