In previous work, we introduced the quasi-static retry traffic model, which describes the behavior of retry traffic generated by users who are impatient when waiting for a response from the system. In other words, the model describes interactions between users and the system. This interaction can be described in a simple form if it is assumed that the system offers infinitely fast (ideal) proce...

Scheduliig strategies for multiprocessor DSP are classified into four types: fully-dynamic, static-assignment, self-timed, and fully-static. The concept of static scheduling (self-timed or fullystatic) is extended to handle non-deterministic actors in the proposed quasi-static scheduling. Quasi-static scheduling minimizes run-time overhead with increased compilation complexity, thus adequate fo...
