The advance in semiconductor technologies presents the serious problem of parameter variations. They affect threshold voltage of transistors and thus circuit delay also has variat...
(m,k)-firm constraints have been used to schedule tasks in soft/firm real-time systems under overloaded conditions. In general, they are provided by application designers to guara...
—It is widely assumed that scheduling real-time tasks becomes more difficult as their deadlines get shorter. With deadlines shorter, however, tasks potentially compete less with...
