      On optimal performance for linear time-varying systems 

      Djouadi, S. M.; Charalambous, Charalambos D. (2004)
      In this paper we consider the optimal disturbance attenuation problem and robustness for linear time-varying (LTV) systems. This problem corresponds to the standard optimal H ∞ problem for LTI systems. The problem is ...

      PADS: An approach to modeling resource demand and supply for the formal analysis of hierarchical scheduling 

      Philippou, Anna; Lee, I.; Sokolsky, O. (2012)
      As real-time embedded systems become more complex, resource partitioning is increasingly used to guarantee real-time performance. Recently, several compositional frameworks of resource partitioning have been proposed using ...

      Probabilistic resource failure in real-time process algebra 

      Philippou, Anna; Cleaveland, R.; Lee, I.; Smolka, S.; Sokolsky, O. (1998)
      PACSR, a probabilistic extension of the real-time process algebra ACSR, is presented. The extension is built upon a novel treatment of the notion of a resource. In ACSR, resources are used to model contention in accessing ...

      A relationally complete visual query language for heterogeneous dAta Sources and pervasive querying 

      Polyviou, S.; Samaras, George S.; Evripidou, Paraskevas (2005)
      In this paper we introduce and formally define Query by Browsing (QBB), a scalable, relationally complete visual query language based on the desktop user interface paradigm and tuple relational calculus that allows the ...

      Resources in process algebra 

      Lee, I.; Philippou, Anna; Sokolsky, O. (2007)
      The Algebra of Communicating Shared Resources (ACSR) is a timed process algebra which extends classical process algebras with the notion of a resource. It takes the view that the timing behavior of a real-time system depends ...

      Similarity reductions of the (1 + 3)-dimensional Burgers equation 

      Christou, Marios Andreas; Ivanova, Nataliya M.; Sophocleous, Christodoulos (2009)
      We consider the (1 + 3)-dimensional Burgers equation ut = uxx + uyy + uzz + uux which has considerable interest in mathematical physics. We complete the list of similarity reductions that are obtained from the Lie symmetries ...
