Heterogeneous systems commonly adopt dynamic scheduling algorithms to improve resource utilization and enhance scheduling flexibility. However, such flexibility may introduce timing anomalies, wherein locally reduced execution times can…

In some important application areas of hard real-time systems, preemptive sporadic tasks with harmonic periods and constraint deadlines running upon a uni-processor platform play an important role. We propose a new algorithm for determining…

The complexity of embedded application design is increasing with growing user demands. In particular, automotive embedded systems are highly complex in nature, and their functionality is realized by a set of periodic tasks. These tasks may…

This report considers a sporadic real-time task system with $n$ sporadic tasks on a uniprocessor platform, in which the lowest-priority task is a segmented self-suspension task and the other higher-priority tasks are ordinary sporadic…

Real-time systems are intrinsic components of many pivotal applications, such as self-driving vehicles, aerospace and defense systems. The trend in these applications is to incorporate multiple tasks onto fewer, more powerful hardware…

In this work, we study the single machine scheduling problem with uncertain release times and processing times of jobs. We adopt a robust scheduling approach, in which the measure of robustness to be minimized for a given sequence of jobs…

This paper proposes important and useful results relating to the minimization of the sum of the flow-time and the tardiness of tasks or jobs with unequal release dates (occurrence date), with application to maintenance planning and…

Mixed-criticality real-time scheduling has been developed to improve resource utilization while guaranteeing safe execution of critical applications. These studies use optimistic resource reservation for all the applications to improve…

Real-time end-to-end task scheduling in networked control systems (NCSs) requires the joint consideration of both network and computing resources to guarantee the desired quality of service (QoS). This paper introduces a new model for…

Given a program and a time deadline, does the program finish before the deadline when executed on a given platform? With the requirement to produce a test case when such a violation can occur, we refer to this problem as the worst-case…

Real-time cyber-physical systems depend on deterministic task execution to guarantee safety and correctness. Unfortunately, this determinism can unintentionally expose timing information that enables adversaries to infer task execution…

We consider the class of single machine scheduling problems with the objective to minimize the weighted number of late jobs, under the assumption that completion due-dates are not known precisely at the time when decision-maker must provide…

We study the single machine scheduling problem with the objective to minimize the total weight of late jobs. It is assumed that the processing times of jobs are not exactly known at the time when a complete schedule must be dispatched.…

Over-estimation of worst-case execution times (WCETs) of real-time tasks leads to poor resource utilization. In a mixed-criticality system (MCS), the over-provisioning of CPU time to accommodate the WCETs of highly critical tasks may lead…

We consider scheduling problems for unit jobs with release times, where the number or size of the gaps in the schedule is taken into consideration, either in the objective function or as a constraint. Except for a few papers on energy…

In realistic production scenarios, Advanced Planning and Scheduling (APS) tools often require manual intervention by production planners, as the system works with incomplete information, resulting in suboptimal schedules. Often, the…

Recent research in the domain of real-time scheduling theory has tackled the problem of scheduling mixed-criticality systems upon uniprocessor or multiprocessor platforms, with the main objective being to respect the timeliness of the most…

Consider a discrete-time system in which a centralized controller (CC) is tasked with assigning at each time interval (or slot) K resources (or servers) to K out of M>=K nodes. When assigned a server, a node can execute a task. The tasks…

Runtime variability in computing systems causes some tasks to straggle and take much longer than expected to complete. These straggler tasks are known to significantly slowdown distributed computation. Job execution with speculative…

This paper considers the scheduling of stochastic jobs on parallel identical machines to minimize the expected total weighted completion time. While this is a classical problem with a significant body of research on approximation algorithms…
