Cache memories have been extensively used to bridge the gap between high speed processors and relatively slower main memories. However, they are sources of predictability problems...
The research on real-time scheduling has mostly focused on the development of algorithms that allows to test whether the constraints imposed on the task execution (often expressed ...
Multiprocessor task scheduling is an important and computationally difficult problem. This paper proposes a comparison study of genetic algorithm and list scheduling algorithm. Bo...
The ARTiS system, a real-time extension of the GNU/Linux scheduler dedicated to SMP (Symmetric Multi-Processors) systems is proposed. ARTiS exploits the SMP architecture to guarant...
Instruction-set extensible processors allow an existing processor core to be extended with application-specific custom instructions. In this paper, we explore a novel application...
