Rapid progress in microelectromechanical system (MEMS) and radio frequency (RF) design has enabled the development of low-power, inexpensive, and network-enabled microsensors. The...
Multi-agent systems are widely used to address large-scale distributed combinatorial applications in the real world. One such application is meeting scheduling (MS), which is deļ¬...
The Sporadic Server (SS) overcomes the major limitations of other Resource Reservation Fixed Priority based techniques, but it also presents some drawbacks, mainly related to an i...
