Abstract--This paper proposes an analytical model to estimate the cost of running an affinity-based thread schedule on multicore systems. The model consists of three submodels to e...
In the last years, a progressive migration from single processor chips to multi-core computing devices has taken place in the general-purpose and embedded system market. The devel...
With the advances in server technology, and the advent of fast Gigabit networks, it has become possible to support multi-media applications. To support the requirements for the tr...
(m,k)-firm constraints have been used to schedule tasks in soft/firm real-time systems under overloaded conditions. In general, they are provided by application designers to guara...
The scheduling of application tasks is a problem that occurs in all multiprocessor systems. This problem becomes even more complicated if the tasks are not independent but are inte...
