Synthesis and optimization of coordination controllers for distributed embedded systems
A main advantage of control composition with modal processes [4] is the enhanced retargetability of the composed behavior over a wide variety of target architectures. Unlike previ...

Minimizing the Network Overhead of Checkpointing in Cycle-harvesting Cluster Environments
Cycle-harvesting systems such as Condor have been developed to make desktop machines in a local area (which are often similar to clusters in hardware configuration) available as ...
