Embedded devices are gaining popularity day by day due to the expanded use of Internet of
Things applications. However, these embedded devices have limited capabilities …

During the design phase of many real-time systems, designers often have a range of
acceptable period values for which some levels of safety or quality of service are …

Task period selection is often used to adjust the workload to the available computational
resources. In this paper, we propose a model where each selected period is not restricted to …

One of the most promising approaches to mixed-criticality systems is the use of multi-core
execution platforms based on a hypervisor. Several successful EU Projects are based on …

On UAVs, telemetry messages are often sent following a FIFO schedule, and some
messages, depending on the FIFO queue state may suffer long delays, and can even be lost …

The periodic task model has been widely used in real-time systems due to the periodic
behavior of many applications or periodic observation patterns of environmental events as in …

Many of today's complex cyber–physical systems (CPSs) are represented as a set of
independent co-executing real-time control applications, where each such application is …

Harmonic task scheduling has many attractive properties, including a utilization bound of
100% under rate-monotonic scheduling and reduced jitter. At the same time, it places a …

Elastic scheduling is a framework to reduce task utilizations (often by increasing periods) in
response to system overload. This paper extends elastic scheduling to uniprocessor …

In order to obtain a feasible schedule of a hard real-time system, heuristic based techniques
are the solution of choice. In the last few years, optimization solvers have gained attention …
