In general computing systems, a job (process/task) may suspend itself whilst it is waiting for
some activity to complete, eg, an accelerator to return data. In real-time systems, such self …

Multiprocessor hardware platforms are now being considered for embedded systems, due to
their high computational power and little additional cost when compared to single processor …

In computing systems, a job/process/task/thread may suspend itself when it has to wait for
some other internal or external activities, such as computation offloading or memory …

Motivated by a string of recent errata, the paper argues that mechanized, yet readable
schedulability proofs are desirable, feasible to create with current tools and with reasonable …

For real-time embedded systems, self-suspending behaviors can cause substantial
performance/schedulability degradations. In this paper, we focus on preemptive fixed-priority …

Heterogeneous computing platforms running highly parallelized applications are becoming
increasingly common in real-time embedded systems. This demands for expressive task …

In real-time systems, schedulability analyses provide the required timing guarantees.
However, current suspension-aware analyses are limited to Task-Level Fixed-Priority (TFP) …

In real-time scheduling theory, self-suspension describes the behavior that a job can
suspend itself from the ready state and thus be exempted from the scheduling for the …

Was it really necessary to switch from simple uniprocessor architectures to the more
complex parallel structure of multiprocessor platforms? Well, the opinion of the major …

The purpose of this article is to (i) highlight the flaws in three previously published works
[Audsley, 2004a; Audsley, 2004b; Bletsas, 2005] on the worst-case response time analysis …
