In this paper, we address the scheduling problem of multi-mode real-time systems upon uniform multiprocessor platforms. We propose two transition protocols, specified together wit...
In the last years, a progressive migration from single processor chips to multi-core computing devices has taken place in the general-purpose and embedded system market. The devel...
The multi-processor total tardiness problem (MPTTP) is an ÆÈ-hard scheduling problem, in which the goal is to minimise the tardiness of a set of jobs that are processed on a numb...
A new feasibility test for preemptive scheduling of periodic or sporadic real-time tasks on a single-queue m-server system allows for arbitrary fixed task priorities and arbitrary...
—In 3G data networks, network operators would like to balance system throughput while serving users in a fair manner. This is achieved using the notion of proportional fairness. ...
