RÉSUMÉ. De nombreux systèmes temps réel doivent conjointement satisfaire des contraintes temps réel et assurer une qualité de service. Dans cette optique, nous présentons une méthode par séparation et d’évaluation dédiée aux systèmes temps réel stricts à priorité fixe. Notre méthode est basée sur un algorithme générique qui utilise des fonctions communes indépendamment du critère de performance...

Wood-feeding insects encounter challenging diets containing low protein quantities, recalcitrant carbohydrate sources, and plant defensive compounds. The Asian longhorned beetle (Anoplophora glabripennis) is a wood-feeding insect that attacks and kills a diversity of hardwood tree species. We compared gene expression of midguts collected from larvae feeding in a preferred tree, sugar maple, to ...
