Multicore architectures, which have multiple processing units on a single chip, have been adopted by most chip manufacturers. Most such chips contain on-chip caches that are share...
We consider the use of the earliest-deadline-first (EDF) scheduling algorithm in soft real-time multiprocessor systems. In hard real-time systems, a significant disparity exists...

We revisit the problem of supertasking in Pfair-scheduled multiprocessor systems. In this approach, a set of tasks, called component tasks, is assigned to a server task, called a ...
