Our goal is to automatically obtain a distributed and fault-tolerant embedded system: distributed because the system must run on a distributed architecture; fault-tolerant because...
Scheduling tasks on large-scale computational grids is difficult due to the heterogeneous computational capabilities of the resources, node unavailability and unreliable network ...
—We define a family of execution policies for a programming model called PTIDES (Programming Temporally Integrated Distributed Embedded Systems). A PTIDES application (factory a...
