This PhD dissertation has resulted in six
publications in which one of the papers received Best Paper
Award at ICESS 2021. All the papers were published in
reputed venues for real-time systems research, i.e., RTSS
2020, RTNS 2021, ICESS 2021, RTCSA 2022, RTSS 2022,
Elsevier’s Journal of System Architecture. Two more papers
are expected to be published soon.Multicore platforms share the hardware resources such as caches, interconnects, and main memory among all the cores. Due to such sharing, tasks running on different cores compete to access these shared resources which can potentially result in shared resource contention. This shared resource contention can increase the execution times of tasks in a non-deterministic manner. Consequently, the shared resource contention is problematic for hard real-time systems, i.e., systems that run tasks with stringent timing requirements. To address this issue, this PhD dissertation builds novel solutions to model and analyze the shared resource contention that can be suffered by tasks executing on a multicore system. The shared resource contention aware schedulability analysis is then derived by integrating the maximum shared resource contention that can be suffered by the tasks.This work was supported by the CISTER Research

Removing Barriers, Integrating Research, Spreading Excellence: The European Satellite Communications Network of Excellence "SatNEx"
Within the recently launched 6th Research Framework Programme of the European Commission, 21 major players in satellite communications research have joined forces to implement the European Satellite Communications Network of Excellence (SatNEx). The primary goal of SatNEx is to achieve long-lasting integration of the European research in satellite communication and to develop a common base of knowledge, thus contributing to the realization of the European Research Area.
This paper discusses the background and motivation for implementation of the network and highlights the SatNEx mission and key objectives. A top-level overview is then provided including a description of the consortium, the Joint Programme of Activities (JPA) and the time schedule with deliverables and milestones. Finally, an update of ongoing work is presented
The propagation of technology management taxonomies for evaluating investments in information systems
To provide managers with a critical insight into the management of new technology, this paper uses a case study research strategy to examine the technology management experiences of a leading UK manufacturing organization during its adoption of a vendor-supplied Manufacturing Resource Planning information system.<br /
