Real-time systems are widely implemented in the Internet of Things(IoT) and safety-critical systems, both of which have generated enormous social value. Aiming at the classic schedulability analysis problem in real-time systems, we proposed an exact Boolean analysis based on interference(EBAI) for schedulability analysis in real-time systems. EBAI is based on worst-case interference time(WCIT), which considers both the release jitter and blocking time of the task. We improved the efficiency of the three existing tests and provided a comprehensive summary of related research results in the field. Abundant experiments were conducted to compare EBAI with other related results. Our evaluation showed that in certain cases, the runtime gain achieved using our analysis method may exceed 73% compared to the stateof-the-art schedulability test. Furthermore, the benefits obtained from our tests grew with the number of tasks, reaching a level suitable for practical application. EBAI is oriented to the five-tuple real-time task model with stronger expression ability and possesses a low runtime overhead. These characteristics make it applicable in various real-time systems such as spacecraft, autonomous vehicles, industrial robots, and traffic command systems.

The effectiveness of modeling contextual information has been empirically shown in numerous computer vision tasks. In this paper, we propose a simple yet efficient augmented fully convolutional network(AugFCN) by aggregating content-and position-based object contexts for semantic ***, motivated because each deep feature map is a global, class-wise representation of the input,we first propose an augmented nonlocal interaction(AugNI) to aggregate the global content-based contexts through all feature map interactions. Compared to classical position-wise approaches, AugNI is more efficient. Moreover, to eliminate permutation equivariance and maintain translation equivariance, a learnable,relative position embedding branch is then supportably installed in AugNI to capture the global positionbased contexts. AugFCN is built on a fully convolutional network as the backbone by deploying AugNI before the segmentation head network. Experimental results on two challenging benchmarks verify that AugFCN can achieve a competitive 45.38% mIoU(standard mean intersection over union) and 81.9% mIoU on the ADE20K val set and Cityscapes test set, respectively, with little computational overhead. Additionally, the results of the joint implementation of AugNI and existing context modeling schemes show that AugFCN leads to continuous segmentation improvements in state-of-the-art context modeling. We finally achieve a top performance of 45.43% mIoU on the ADE20K val set and 83.0% mIoU on the Cityscapes test set.

Equal channel angle pressing is recognized for its ability to refine alloy grains and alter grain orientation, thereby achieve better mechanical performance of the magnesium alloy. This study investigates the microstructures,dynamic recrystallization mechanism, texture development, and mechanical performance of GW94K(Mg–8.7Gd–4.18Y–0.42Zr wt. %) Mg alloy following ECAP-4 passes at 400°C and 3 mm/min. Results show that when high-temperature deformation is undertaken, twin formation is suppressed while dislocation slip is facilitated, increasing dislocation density during deformation. Following ECAP deformation, the sample displayed higher fracture elongation, TYS, and UTS than the as-solutioned GW94K alloy. In particular, the GW94K alloy performed well mechanically after ECAP-4 passes, with an ultimate TYS of 231 MPa, an UTS of 290 MPa, and an elongation of 14.8 %. DDRX and shear bands induce CDRX, both of which are important in plastic deformation. as well as in modifying microstructure and grain orientation during ECAP deformation.

This paper focuses on the finite-time control(FTC) of the composite formation consensus(CFC)problems for multi-robot systems(MRSs). The CFC problems are firstly proposed for MRSs under the complex network topology of cooperative or cooperative-competitive networks. Regarding the problems of FTC and CFC on multiple Lagrange systems(MLSs), coupled sliding variables are introduced to deal with the robustness and consistent convergence. Then, the adaptive finite-time protocols are given based on the displacement approaches. With the premised FTC, tender-tracking methods are further developed for the problems of tracking information disparity. Stability analyses of those MLSs mentioned above are clarified with Lyapunov candidates considering the coupled sliding vectors, which provide new verification for tender-tracking systems. Under the given coupled-sliding-variable-based finite-time protocols, MLSs distributively adjust the local formation error to achieve global CFC and perform uniform convergence in time-varying tracking. Finally, simulation experiments are conducted while providing practical solutions for the theoretical results.

Mobile edge computing(MEC) provides edge services to users in a distributed and on-demand *** to the heterogeneity of edge applications, deploying latency and resource-intensive applications on resourceconstrained devices is a key challenge for service providers. This is especially true when underlying edge infrastructures are fault and error-prone. In this paper, we propose a fault tolerance approach named DFGP, for enforcing mobile service fault-tolerance in MEC. It synthesizes a generative optimization network(GON) model for predicting resource failure and a deep deterministic policy gradient(DDPG) model for yielding preemptive migration *** show through extensive simulation experiments that DFGP is more effective in fault detection and guaranteeing quality of service, in terms of fault detection accuracy, migration efficiency, task migration time, task scheduling time,and energy consumption than other existing methods.
