- Value-based message multiplexing: an analytical model
- It has been proposed that messages be explicitly tagged with a value function that indicates the message's value to the system as a function of its delay. Also proposed, for use in a message multiplexer, was the MUST (maximum utility scheduling for transmission) protocol, which explicitly considers the value functions of messages waiting for transm....

- Complete manufacturing control using a contract net: a simulation study
- Contract nets, which use a bidding mechanism to solve problems, were first proposed as artificial intelligence constructs for distributed problem solving. They have recently been applied to distributed manufacturing control. The contract net presented, called a complete contract net, is intended to implement both high- and low-level control. The co....

- Headroom and legroom in the 80960 architecture
- Designing with a 32-bit processor requires a major investment of both hardware and software resources. Companies today rarely introduce successful 'one size fits all' products, but rather must design several products with varying degrees of features, performance and cost, to satisfy the marketplace. Once a decision is made on a 32-bit processor, it....

- A stack-based resource allocation policy for realtime processes
- The stack resource policy (SRP) is a resource allocation policy which permits processes with different priorities to share a single runtime stack. It is a refinement of the priority ceiling protocol (PCP), which strictly bounds priority inversion and permits simple schedulability tests. With or without stack sharing, the SRP offers the following im....

- A distributed link restoration algorithm with robust preplanning
- A technique that combines benefits of fast, distributed heuristics and of centralized optimal algorithms is proposed. As a form of preplanning, whenever the topology of the network is deliberately changed, new optimal rerouting plans are calculated, using a centralized or a distributed approach, for each possible total cable failure. These plans ar....

- Implementing an initial software metrics program
- It is noted that software metrics is one of the tools that software practitioners have available to provide software measurement and management of software projects. Using software metrics for measurement allows an organization to assess software products to ensure they adhere to original performance requirements continuously throughout a developme....

- Reflector shaping by optimization of wavefront shapes
- The shaping of reflector antennas has generally been done by solving a system of partial differential equations (PDEs) which describe the ray tracking system. The technique has been very successful in many cases but has some difficulties with existence and uniqueness questions due to the PDE formulation. The author describes a technique which is ba....

- Enhancing success probabilities of projects, especially large projects entailing legal-political difficulties
- It is noted that managing large projects that entail legal-political difficulties is a formidable task. Success is often dependent on the ability of the project manager to successfully cope with a myriad of complex factors that endanger the successful go-ahead, implementation, and completion of the project effort. To assist project managers in thes....

- Productivity measurements: essential for reconciling relationships among academic functions
- It is noted that faculties, department chairs, deans, and provosts often debate the proper role between pedagogy and research, but to respond meaningfully responsibilities for all academic functions have to be considered in relationship with one another. Faculty renewal is vital to the quality of faculty performance and self-renewal opportunities m....
