Abstract—Recent results have shown that the feasibility problem of scheduling periodic tasks with self-suspensions is NPhard in the strong sense. We observe that a variation of t...
—We propose FIT, a flexible, lightweight, and real-time scheduling system for wireless sensor platforms. There are three salient features of FIT. First, its two-tier hierarchical...

Some emerging networked embedded real-time applications have relatively long reaction time magnitudes—e.g., milliseconds to minutes. These longer execution time magnitudes allow...

Many mission-critical distributed real-time applications must handle aperiodic tasks with end-to-end deadlines. However, existing middleware (e.g., RT-CORBA) lacks schedulability ...

Interrupts are important aspects of real-time embedded systems to handle events in time. When there exist nested interrupts in a real-time system, and an urgent interrupt is allow...
