Real-time computing plays a crucial role in our society since an increasing number of
complex systems rely, in part or completely, on computer control. Examples of applications …

As system integration becomes an increasingly important challenge for complex real-time
systems, there has been a significant demand for supporting real-time systems in virtualized …

Recent years have witnessed two major trends in the development of complex real-time
embedded systems. First, to reduce cost and enhance flexibility, multiple systems are …

Clouds have become appealing platforms for not only general-purpose applications, but
also real-time ones. However, current clouds cannot provide real-time performance to virtual …

Across a range of safety-critical domains, an evolution is underway to endow embedded
systems with" thinking" capabilities by using artificial-intelligence (AI) techniques. This …

Many cyber-physical applications including sensing and control operations can tolerate a
certain degree of timing violations as long as the number of the violations are predictably …

ARINC specification 653-2 describes the interface between application software and
underlying middleware in a distributed real-time avionics system. The real-time workload in …

With the rapid evolution of commercial hardware platforms, in most application domains, the
industry has shown a growing interest in integrating and running independently-developed …

In this paper we propose a synchronization protocol for resource sharing among
independently-developed real-time systems on multi-core platforms. The systems may use …

In this paper, the Multiprocessor Bandwidth Inheritance (M-BWI) protocol is presented, which
constitutes an extension of the Bandwidth Inheritance (BWI) protocol to symmetric …
