A workflow represents a complex activity that is often modeled as a Directed Acyclic Graph (DAG) in which each vertex is a task and each directed edge represents both precedence and possible communication from its originating ...

Multi - Expert Disease Diagnosis System

Cloud schedulers that allocate resources exclusively to single workflows are not workconserving

as they may be forced to leave gaps in their schedules because of the

precedence constraints in the workflows. ...

There are many vital real-time systems such as avionics, mission-critical, industrial

control, and space-mission, which cannot tolerate any request overruns. Safeness analysis of such

systems is directly ...

This article proposes a new hybrid methodology,

together with an associated series of experiments

employing this methodology, for an evolutionary gait

generator that uses trigonometric truncated ...

Normalization is the most exercised technique for the

analysis of relational databases. It aims at creating a set

of relational tables with minimum data redundancy that

preserve consistency and facilitate ...

It has been proved that there is no optimal online

scheduler for uniform parallel machines. Despite its nonoptimality,

EDF is an appropriate algorithm to use in

such environments. However, its ...
