A reward-based task typically consists of a mandatory part that must be accomplished before the given deadline, and an optional part that is associated with rewards for partial co...
In the context of battery-powered real-time systems three constraints need to be addressed: energy, deadlines and task rewards. Many future real-time systems will count on differe...
We introduce the First Fit Matching Periods algorithm for rate-monotonic multiprocessor scheduling of periodic tasks with implicit deadlines and show that it yields asymptotically...
—Many embedded systems operate under severe power and energy constraints. Voltage clock scaling is one mechanism by which energy consumption may be reduced: It is based on the fa...
In this paper we study the global scheduling of periodic task systems with arbitrary deadlines upon identical multiprocessor platforms. We first show two very general properties ...
