Semi-Slack Scheduling Arbitrary Activation Patterns in Mixed-Criticality Systems
IEEE Access, 2018 This paper proposes a semi-slack scheduling framework for mixed-criticality systems with arbitrary task activation patterns. In particular, based on the schedulability test of arbitrary task activation model, we present a tight slack-reclaim scheme that ...

Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Education, Volume 53, Issue 2, Page 131-141, March/April 2025.Abstract In the classroom, metabolism is often approached and received as a mundane exercise in memorization. Teaching metabolism also faces the challenge of negative perceptions that can impede learning. We sought to improve the learning experience in an undergraduate lecture course on microbial metabolism by implementing an illustrated story that ...
