Parallel, distributed and real-time systems

Advances in semiconductor technology make it technically possible to integrate complex systems on a single chip. This solution increases computing power by integrating hundreds of processors on MPSoC. The optimal allocation and scheduling of the tasks constituting them can be obtained statically. Our objective is to participate in this design flow by proposing solutions to the problems of assigning, allocating and scheduling real-time and computationally intensive applications on embedded systems.
