Scheduling of sporadic task systems on multiprocessor platforms is an area which has received much attention in the recent past. It is widely believed that finding an optimal sch...
Memory management is a critical issue for correctness and performance in real-time embedded systems. Recent work on real-time garbage collectors has shown that it is possible to p...
Distributed object systems for partitionable systems present a challenge, in that there is a trade-off between availability and consistency. Changes in one partition are not visib...

PDAs, cellular phones and other mobile devices are now capable of supporting complex data manipulation operations. Here, we focus on ad-hoc spatial joins of datasets residing in m...
In this paper, we study strategies in incremental planning for ordering and grouping subproblems partitioned by the subgoals of a planning problem when each subproblem is solved b...
