The use of networks for communications between the electronic control units (ECU) of a
vehicle in production cars dates from the beginning of the 1990s. The specific requirements …

It is over 40 years since the first seminal work on priority assignment for real-time systems
using fixed priority scheduling. Since then, huge progress has been made in the field of real …

Bounding the end-to-end latency of processing chains in distributed real-time systems is a
wellstudied problem, relevant in multiple industrial fields, such as automotive systems and …

Many real-time systems rely on static scheduling algorithms. This includes cyclic scheduling,
rate monotonic scheduling and fixed schedules created by off-line scheduling techniques …

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 …

Controller Area Network (CAN) is a well-designed communications bus for sending and
receiving short real-time control messages at speeds of up to 1Mbit/sec. One of the …

SymTA/S is a system-level performance and timing analysis approach based on formal
scheduling analysis techniques and symbolic simulation. The tool supports heterogeneous …

As the real-time computing industry moves away from static cyclic executive-based
scheduling towards more flexible process-based scheduling, so it is important for current …

In this paper we present an extension to current schedulability analysis techniques for
periodic task with offsets, scheduled under a preemptive fixed priority scheduler. Previous …

This article describes cross-cultural research on the relation between how people
conceptualize nature and how they act in it. Mental models of nature differ dramatically …
