Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is a prevalent retinal disorder in the elderly, often leading to significant vision impairment. The diagnosis of AMD is confirmed through various medical imaging modalities, with color fundus photography (CFP) being a primary tool. The detection and staging of AMD-severity depend on several factors, including the number and size of drusen, the presence of pigmentary changes, geographic atrophy, and neovascularization, all of which are identifiable through CFP. In this study, we introduce an innovative dual-vision transformer-based network designed to automatically detect AMD and classify its severity into either dry AMD or wet AMD using CFP. Early …

With a focus on computationally intensive, distributed, and parallel workloads, scheduling in mixed-criticality distributed systems presents significant challenges due to shared memory and resources, as well as the diverse demands of tasks. The system’s efficiency is heavily dependent on the overall scheduling duration (make span), while individual task deadlines impose strict timing constraints. When the tasks need to simultaneously access the shared memory, then these tasks interfere the execution of one another. For managing the scheduling of interfering tasks in distributed mixed-criticality systems, a novel Interference-Aware Partitioning Fixed Priority (IAP-FP) approach is proposed, which effectively handles task partitioning among cores …
