Fast networks and low-cost processors are making distributed systems for real-time applications attractive from a simple cost-of-goods perspective. However, the complexity of the communications code ...

The success of real-time digital systems comes from optimizing processing for the most important tasks rather than speeding up overall execution.

Many distributed real-time systems must meet strict real-time performance demands. Extremely high-performance middleware has evolved that can handle millions of messages per second with tenths of ...

You can find real-time operating systems (RTOS) everywhere. They are as ubiquitous as their more familiar operating-system cousins – Windows, Mac OS and Unix – that control software applications and ...

Urban mobility in major metro areas operates at a scale where traditional transportation management approaches begin to fail.

We consider that the protection is achieved through a temporal- and space-partitioning scheme similar to Integrated Modular Avionics (IMA). At the processing-level, we have proposed an optimization ...

If you listen to enough conference talks, vendor pitches, and analyst pronouncements, you can be forgiven for assuming every organization on the planet now can sense and respond, in real time, to ...
