Classical off-line approaches based on preemption such as RM (Rate Monotonic), DM (Deadline Monotonic), EDF (Earliest Deadline First), LLF (Least Laxity First), etc, give schedula...
We present a method for finding optimal partial solutions to overconstrained instances of the Disjunctive Temporal Problems (DTP). The solutions are optimal in that they satisfy ...
We present a method for specifying temporal constraints on trajectories of dynamical systems and enforcing them during qualitative simulation. This capability can be used to focus...
In their work on tractable deduction systems, D. McAllester and later D. Basin and H. Ganzinger have identified a property of inference systems (the locality property) that ensures...
We propose a framework for deployment and subsequent autonomic management of component-based distributed applications. An initial deployment goal is specified using a declarative ...
