Hardware accelerators, such as those based on GPUs and FPGAs, offer an excellent
opportunity to efficiently parallelize functionalities. Recently, modern embedded platforms …

The nonlinear structure of a directed acyclic graph (DAG)-based blockchain facilitates
parallel transaction processing, improving the overall scalability and throughput of the …

Intelligent driving has advanced significantly in recent decades, paving the path for the
transportation of the future. Digital twin (DT) technology, which can bridge the physical and …

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

Nowadays, due to the rapid growth of network service requests and popularity of IoT device
deployment, wireless networks currently suffer from huge traffic produced by these requests …

When designing a real-time system, application architects are called to settle many non-
trivial decisions that may severely influence the system's performance. With modern …

Looking back, I still recall the first program written by one of the classmates. We were just a
bunch of young students listening to the professor teaching us how to program a problem for …

The self-suspending task model proved to be particularly effective in capturing the timing
behavior of real-time systems characterized by complex execution patterns, such as …

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 …

Tasks are called self-suspending if they can yield their ready state (specifically, releasing the
processor while having highest priority) despite being incomplete, for instance, to offload …
