Scheduling large amounts of tasks in distributed computing platforms composed of millions of nodes is a challenging goal, even more in a fully decentralized way and with low overhe...
The major obstacle to use multicores for real-time applications is that we may not predict and provide any guarantee on real-time properties of embedded software on such platforms...
Progressive processing plans allow systems to tradeoff computational resources against the quality of service by specifying alternative ways in which to accomplish each step. When ...

Networks of Workstations (NOW) have become important and cost-effective parallel platforms for scientific computations. In practice, a NOW system is heterogeneous and non-dedicat...
Many real-time embedded systems involve a collection of independently executing event-driven code blocks, having hard real-time constraints. Tasks in many such systems, like netwo...
