Aggregate traffic loads and topology in multi-hop wireless networks may vary slowly, permitting MAC protocols to `learn' how to spatially coordinate and adapt contention patte...
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...
