Editor's Note: Embedded Systems Architecture, 2nd Edition, is a practical and technical guide to understanding the components that make up an embedded system’s architecture. Offering detailed ...

The "branch-and-bound" algorithm for the exact solution of a three-machine scheduling problem proposed by Lomnicki has been generalized to the case of an arbitrary number of machines (under the ...

The purpose of multi-programming is to maximize the CPU utilization through some process running at all times in the CPU. Processes change its state during the time of its execution that may be in one ...

The paper considers a project scheduling problem in weighted directed graphs in which arcs represent operations while nodes are identified with starting and finishing endpoints of the operations; arc ...
