Using PVS (Prototype Verification System), we prove that an industry designed scheduler for a smartcard personalization machine is safe and optimal. This scheduler has previously ...

The global search properties of heuristic search algorithms are not well understood. In this paper, we introduce a new metric, mobility, that quantifies the dispersion of local o...

A fundamental problem in image recognition is to evaluate the similarity of two images. This can be done by searching for the best pixel-to-pixel matching taking into account suita...
Abstract-- For embedded systems where neither energy nor reliability can be easily sacrificed, we present an energy efficient soft error protection scheme for register files (RF). ...
