With computer systems becoming ever larger and more complex, the cost and effort associated with their construction is increasing and the systems are now sufficiently complex that...
Component based development is a promising approach for embedded systems. Typical for embedded software is the presence of resource constraints in multiple dimensions. An essentia...
We present a framework (Real-Time Calculus) for analysing various system properties pertaining to timing analysis, loads on various components and on-chip buffer memory requiremen...
Modal Transition Systems (MTS) are operational models that distinguish between required and proscribed behaviour of the system to be and behaviour which it is not yet known whethe...
In this paper we develop models for and analyze several randomized work stealing algorithms in a dynamic setting. Our models represent the limiting behavior of systems as the numb...
