Large-scale distributed real-time systems are increasingly difficult to analyze within the Rate Monotonic Analysis framework. This is due partly to their heterogeneity, complex i...
Systems-on-Chip (SoCs) are heterogeneous by nature as they may integrate digital, analog, RF hardware as well as software components or non electrical parts such as sensors or act...
We study a peer-to-peer backup system, where users offer some of their storage space to provide service for the others. The economic model for such a system is different from the o...
: Multiagent Systems (MAS) are open, heterogeneous and distributed software systems of autonomous agents. The management of exception differs in MAS from what is known in usual eng...
—We describe a system-level simulation model and show that it enables accurate predictions of both I/O subsystem and overall system performance. In contrast, the conventional app...
