When executing soft real-time tasks in a shared processor, it is important to properly allocate the computational resources such that the quality of service requirements of each t...

In this paper we show how the classical job-shop scheduling problem can be modeled as a special class of acyclic timed automata. Finding an optimal schedule corresponds, then, to n...
The DAG-based task graph model has been found effective in scheduling for performance prediction and optimization of parallel applications. However the scheduling complexity and s...
The process by which outpatients are scheduled for a doctor's visit is a crucial determinant of the overall efficiency of the patient flow. The problem at hand consists of de...
This paper describes a MODSIM III-based object-oriented network simulation model specifically developed for modeling railroad operations of Union Pacific Railroad. The transportat...
