A lot of changes in the manufacturing sector will occur in the future and it is important to
transform the actual production systems to evolvable production systems. Fractal, bionic and …

A typical approach to real-time fieldbus arbitration is to use an off-line scheduler that
generates a cyclic static table containing the allocation of bus-time-slots to the transaction of …

Wireless technologies are being more and more used in automation, not only because the
installation costs are much lower, but also the true self-reconfiguration of a system without …

Dealing with time constraints in the design of distributed real-time systems is a challenge in
the future trends on distributed computing. Time constraints must be considered, projected …

The theory of real-time task scheduling can be applied, in many situations, to real-time
