This paper presents an exact approach of calculating float for each activity in linear schedules. It is based on singularity functions, which have been used previously to determin...
Simulation methods are extensively used in modeling complex scheduling problems. However, traditional layout of simulation models can become complicated when they are used to find...
Concurrent software is difficult to verify. Because the thread schedule is not controlled by the application, testing may miss defects that occur under specific thread schedules. T...
In this paper, we develop a general model, called Latency-Rate servers (LR servers), for the analysis of traffic scheduling algorithms in broadband packet networks. The behavior of...
This paper studies parallel job scheduling in a distributed system. A simulation model is used to address performance issues associated with scheduling. Five policies are used to ...
