A cyber-physical system (CPS) is composed of tightly-integrated computation,
communication and physical elements. Medical devices, buildings, mobile devices, robots …

Computing systems are becoming more and more dynamically reconfigurable or adaptive,
to be flexible wrt their environment and to automate their administration. Autonomic …

In this note, we revisit the problem of scheduling stabilizing control tasks on embedded
processors. We start from the paradigm that a real-time scheduler could be regarded as a …

This paper examines a class of real-time control systems in which each control task triggers
its next release based on the value of the last sampled state. Prior work used simulations to …

In this 25th year anniversary paper for the IEEE Real Time Systems Symposium, we review
the key results in real-time scheduling theory and the historical events that led to the …

Since the first results published in 1973 by Liu and Layland on the Rate Monotonic (RM) and
Earliest Deadline First (EDF) algorithms, a lot of progress has been made in the …

Fuzzy logic methodology has been proven effective in dealing with complex nonlinear
systems containing uncertainties that are otherwise difficult to model. Technology based on …

In this paper we present a control-based model for control tasks that allows each control task
to trigger itself optimizing computing resources and control performance. Using this model …

Robotic systems are typically subject to real-time constraints. Still, the ROS ecosystem-the
most popular repository of open-source robotics software-exhibits little evidence of the use …

This paper presents the design and implementation of an adaptive Web server architecture
to provide relative and absolute connection delay guarantees for different service classes …
