While many researchers believe that multimedia applications are best managed with hard, real-time scheduling mechanisms, models based on application-level adaptation with relaxed s...
Application specific systems have potential for customization of design with a view to achieve a better costperformance-power trade-off. Such customization requires extensive de...
The design of large-scale, distributed, performance-sensitive systems presents numerous challenges due to their networkcentric nature and stringent quality of service (QoS) requir...
The adoption of Domain-Specific Modeling Languages (DSMLs) for generating framework-based applications has proved to be an effective way of enforcing the correct use of frameworks...
This paper introduces a new programming model for distributed systems, distributed composite objects (DCO), to meet efficient implementation, transparency, and performance demands ...
