This paper addresses several issues of using the mathematical programming representations of discrete-event dynamic systems in perturbation analysis. In particular, linear program...
Analysis of systems containing both discrete and continuous dynamics, hybrid systems, is a difficult issue. Most problems have been shown to be undecidable in general, and decidab...
A distributed software system’s deployment architecture can have a significant impact on the system’s properties, which depend on various system parameters, such as network ba...
In previous work, we presented a tight approximate response-time analysis for tasks with offsets. While providing a tight bound on response times, the tight analysis exhibits simi...
The join is the most important, but also the most time consuming operation in relational database systems. We implemented the parallel Hybrid Hash Join algorithm on a PC-cluster a...
