This paper describes a variant of the actor model suited to the development of multimedia systems. The actor model centers on non-overkilling concurrency and customizable constrai...
In this paper, we propose a simulation-based methodology for worst-case response time estimation of distributed realtime systems. Schedulability analysis produces pessimistic uppe...

We have constructed a FPGA-based "early neural circuit simulator" to model the first two stages of stimulus encoding and processing in the rat whisker system. Rats use t...

Three protocols for gossip-based failure detection services in large-scale heterogeneous clusters are analyzed and compared. The basic gossip protocol provides a means by which fai...
Traditionally, scheduling in high-end parallel systems focuses on how to minimize the average job waiting time and on how to maximize the overall system utilization. Despite the d...
