Dining philosophers is a classic scheduling problem for local mutual exclusion on arbitrary conflict graphs. We establish necessary conditions to solve wait-free dining under even...
Before an application modelled as a Directed Acyclic Graph (DAG) is executed on a heterogeneous system, a DAG mapping policy is often enacted. After mapping, the tasks (in the DAG...

We introduce techniques to support efficient non-atomic execution of very long traces on a new binary translation based, x86-64 compatible VLIW microprocessor. Incrementally comm...
Timeliness in conventional real-time systems is addressed by employing well-known scheduling techniques that guarantee the execution of a number of tasks within certain deadlines. ...
