Since wireless ad-hoc networks use shared communication medium, accesses to the medium must be coordinated to avoid packet collisions. Transmission scheduling algorithms allocate ...
Suppose we have a parallel or distributed system whose nodes have limited capacities, such as processing speed, bandwidth, memory, or disk space. How does the performance of the s...
Minimizing energy consumption is an important issue in the design of real-time embedded systems. As many embedded systems are powered by rechargeable batteries, the goal is to ext...
In this paper we present an adaptation of the Dual Priority Scheduling Algorithm to schedule both hard realtime periodic tasks and soft-aperiodic tasks in shared memory multiproce...
The task management is a key point in grid applications and can highly influence their efficiency. There are many solutions that we can classify according to their centralizatio...
