Over 90 percent of all microprocessors are now used for realtime and embedded applications. Since the behavior of these applications is often constrained by the physical world, it...
In this report we address the problem of static scheduling of realtime systems that include both hard and soft tasks. We consider systems in which both hard and soft tasks are per...
The use of centralized, real-time position tracking is proliferating in the areas of logistics and public transportation. Real-time positions can be used to provide up-to-date inf...
Abstract. Autonomous agents are systems situated in dynamic environments. They pursue goals and satisfy their needs by responding to external events from the environment. In these ...
—Distributed computing systems often strive to decouple their communicating components (threads on a single node, or nodes in a network) from each other with respect to time, spa...
