: The difficulties to assess reliability of systems that use COTS components are sometimes compounded by the inaccessibility of some COTS codes. This paper develops an approach of ...
Our work addresses protection of hardware IP at the mask level with the goal of preventing unauthorized manufacturing. The proposed protocol based on chip locking and activation i...
This paper deals with specific issues related to the design of distributed embedded systems implemented with mixed, eventtriggered and time-triggered task sets, which communicate ...
Abstract The increasing complexity of heterogeneous systems-on-chip, SoC, and distributed embedded systems makes system optimization and exploration a challenging task. Ideally, a ...
