This paper introduces improvements in partitioning schemes for multiprocessor real-time systems which allow higher processor utilization and enhanced schedulability by using exact...
Database applications such as online transaction processing (OLTP) and decision support systems (DSS) constitute the largest and fastest-growing segment of the market for multipro...
NETCICATS is a software system for empirically evaluating network-conscious image compression, an approach that does not simply optimize compression, but which optimizes overall pe...
In this paper, we study the reliable decentralized supervisory control of discrete event systems (DESs) under the general architecture, in which the decision for controllable event...
Abstract. Refinement plays a crucial role in "top-down" styles of verification, such as the refinement calculus, but for probabilistic systems proof of refinement is a pa...
