We introduce a method to improve performance of multiple-description coding based on legacy video coders with pre- and postprocessing. The pre- and post-processing setup is genera...
Partial replication is a way to increase the scalability of replicated systems since updates only need to be applied to a subset of the system's sites, thus allowing replicas...
Variable-bandwidth servers (VBS) control process execution speed by allocating variable CPU bandwidth to processes. VBS enables temporal isolation of EDF-scheduled processes in th...

It is considered good distributed computing practice to devise object implementations that tolerate contention, periods of asynchrony and a large number of failures, but perform f...
Embedded systems are complex as a whole but consist of smaller independent modules minimally interacting with each other. This structure makes embedded systems amenable to composi...
