Towards A Fault-Tolerant, Scheduling Methodology For Safety-Critical Certified Information Systems, Jian Lin Jan 2019

Towards A Fault-Tolerant, Scheduling Methodology For Safety-Critical Certified Information Systems, Jian Lin

Journal of International Technology and Information Management

Today, many critical information systems have safety-critical and non-safety-critical functions executed on the same platform in order to reduce design and implementation costs. The set of safety-critical functionality is subject to certification requirements and the rest of the functionality does not need to be certified, or is certified to a lower level. The resulting mixed-criticality systems bring challenges in designing such systems, especially when the critical tasks are required to complete with a timing constraint. This paper studies a problem of scheduling a mixed-criticality system with fault tolerance. A fault-recovery technique called checkpointing is used where a program can go …

Introducing Competencies In Organizations, Henk Plessius, Anand Sheombar, Pascal Ravesteyn

Communications of the IIMA

In the fast-changing world of IT, relevant competencies are getting more important as these determine how successful you can function in practice. As a consequence, organizations are introducing competency frameworks like the European e-Competence Framework (e-CF, 2014) in their IT departments. However, for many organizations it is unclear what good practices and pitfalls are when introducing such a framework. In this paper this topic is studied by analysing 13 interviews with IT- and HR-managers who are (or recently have been) involved in a transition towards the use of competencies with their IT-staff.
