In distributed real-time systems, an application is often modeled as a set of real-time transactions, where each transaction is a chain of precedence-constrained tasks. Each task ...
Open real-time systems provide for co-hosting hard-, soft- and non-real-time applications. Microkernel-based designs in addition allow for these applications to be mutually protec...
Current multimedia applications are characterized by highly dynamic and non-deterministic behavior as well as high-performance requirements. In addition, portable devices demand a...

Message Sequence Charts (MSCs) are widely used for describing interaction scenarios between the components of a distributed system. Consequently, worst-case response time estimati...
agent-oriented system. We show the complexity to be linear time for one of these logics and polynomial time for another, thus providing encouraging results with respect to the prac...
