Safety-critical embedded systems often operate in harsh environmental conditions that necessitate fault-tolerant computing techniques. Many safety-critical systems also execute re...
Time/utility function time constraints (or TUFs) and utility accrual (UA) scheduling optimality criteria, constitute, arguably, the most effective and broadest approach for adapti...
Automatic repeat request (ARQ) schemes are effective to recover non-real-time data corrupted by channel errors, but their use with real-time traffic is seldom considered because p...
In the control of continuous and physical systems, the controlled system is sampled sufficiently fast to capture the dynamics of the system. In general, this property cannot be app...
This paper addresses the problem of optimizing the packet transmission schedule in an ad hoc network with end-toend delay constraints. The emphasis is to determine the proper rela...
