We investigate the problem of joint routing and link scheduling in Time-Division Multiple Access (TDMA) Wireless Mesh Networks (WMNs) carrying real-time traffic. We propose a framework that always computes a feasible solution (i.e. a set of paths and link activations) if there exists one, by optimally solving a mixed integer-non linear problem. Such solution can be computed in minutes or tens t...

The nonlinear air vehicles can be linearized about desired equilibrium points and a linear controller can be designed which stabilizes the aircraft about that equilibrium point. A mission planning is considered as taking the nonlinear system through different equilibrium points. Thus there will be different linear systems for each equilibrium point. To design a controller that drives the system...

task graph scheduling is a multi-objective optimization and np-hard problem. in this paper a new algorithm on homogeneous multiprocessors systems is proposed. basically, scheduling algorithms are targeted to balance the two parameters of time and energy consumption. these two parameters are up to a certain limit in contrast with each other and improvement of one causes reduction in the other on...

Highway construction projects are one of the most important construction projects in the world. Therefore predicting the time of these kinds of projects is important. Basically highway projects are including few activities which are repeating along the horizontal direction. One of the best methods for scheduling these types of projects is linear scheduling method. The repetitive nature of the h...

The first motivation is that LPV system control appears as an alternative to (classical) gain scheduling control. Remember that gain scheduling control is an heuristic design method for nonlinear system control. For many years, gain scheduling control was largely applied, even if its theoretical foundation was only recently investigated [Rug91]. One of their main drawbacks is the lack of a syst...

Gain scheduling controllers are considered in this paper. The gain scheduling problem where the scheduling parameter vector θ cannot be measured directly, but needs to be estimated is considered. An estimation of the scheduling vector θ has been derived by using the Youla parameterization. The use of the Youla parameterization in connection with estimation of θ directly gives a validation metho...

In the design process of high-throughput applications, design choices concerning the type of processor architecture and appropriate scheduling mechanism, have to be made. Take a reed-solomon decoder as an example, the amount of clock cycles consumed in decoding a code is dependent on the amount of errors within that code. Since this is not known in advance, and the environment in which the code...
