Energy-efficiency has been an important system issue in hardware and software designs to extend operation duration or cut power bills. This research explores systems with probabil...
A distributed protocol is proposed for the synchronization of real-time tasks that have variable resource requirements. The protocol is simple to implement and is intended for lar...
We present a scheme to guarantee that the execution of real-time tasks can tolerate transient and intermittent faults assuming any queue- based scheduling technique. The scheme is...
This paper focuses on the problem of providing efficient run-time support to multimedia applications in a real-time system, where two types of tasks can coexist simultaneously: mu...
The main focus of this paper is the problem of ensuring timeliness in safety critical systems. First, we introduce a method and its associated technique to model both real-time ta...
Statistical Rate Monotonic Scheduling (SRMS) is a generalization of the classical RMS results of Liu and Layland [LL73] for periodic tasks with highly variable execution times and...
A non-blocking protocol that allows real-time tasks to share data in a multiprocessor system is presented in this paper. The protocol gives the means to concurrent real-time tasks...
From a real-time perspective, the Garbage Collector (GC) introduces unpredictable pauses that are not tolerated by real-time tasks. Real-time collectors eliminate this problem but...
Energy-efficient real-time task scheduling has been actively explored in the past decade. Different from the past work, this paper considers schedulability conditions for stochas...
The distribution of real-time tasks in a networked environment in principle has several advantages, above all a high degree of flexibility easing system extension and replacement...
