The huge number of cores existing in current Graphics Processor Units (GPUs) provides these devices with computing capabilities that can be exploited by distributed applications. I...
Abstract. A self-managed system is both self-assembling and selfhealing. Service-oriented Computing (SoC) architectures, such as a Web Services Architecture (WS-A) illustrate a hig...
Multi-FPGA systems (MFSs) are used as custom computing machines, logic emulators and rapid prototyping vehicles. A key aspect of these systems is their programmable routing archit...
Abstract—Cyber-Physical Systems require distributed architectures to support safety critical real-time control. Kopetz’ Time-Triggered Architectures (TTA) have been proposed as...
Firewalls are a well-established security mechanism to restrict the traffic exchanged between networks to a certain subset of users and applications. In order to cope with new appl...
