Fault-tolerant time-triggered communication relies on the synchronization of local clocks. The startup problem is the problem of reaching a sufficient degree of synchronization a...
Developing distributed real-time and embedded (DRE) systems in which multiple quality-of-service (QoS) dimensions must be managed is an important and challenging problem. This pap...
In this paper, we study temperature-constrained realtime systems, where real-time guarantees must be met without exceeding safe temperature levels within the processor. We give a ...
Abstract— Component-based applications require good middleware support. In particular, business logic should be separated from management code for guaranteeing nonfunctional prop...
In this paper we study the global scheduling of periodic task systems upon uniform multiprocessor platforms. We first show two very general properties which are wellknown for uni...
