Process Network analysis

Participants : Anthony Coadou, Robert de Simone, Jean-Vivien Millo, Sid-Ahmed-Ali Touati.

This year we comforted the type of analysis on regular static scheduling and routing in dedicated process network models such as studied in the successive PhD thesis of Julien Boucaron, jean-Vivien Millo, and Anthony Coadou, and recently surveyed in [5] . This resulted mainly in further implementation upgrades of our K-Passa tool (see 5.2 ), performed first by Anthony Coadou (before he left on a postdoc internship), then continued by Jean-Vivien Millo (on a return postdoc position with us).

In a work mostly conducted while member of the Alchemy EPI in Saclay, but which draws a clear link to our past and present activities in the subject, Sid-Ahmed-Ali Touati studied efficient heuristics to the general problem of one-dimensional periodic task scheduling under storage requirements, using a modeling framework akin to Process Networks. This resulted in a journal article accepted once the author had become attached to the Aoste EPI [17] .
