Customizing architectures for particular applications is a promising approach to yield highly energy-efficient designs for embedded systems. This work explores the benefits of arc...
—In distributed real-time embedded systems (DRE), it is common to model an application as a set of task chains. Each chain is activated cyclically and must complete before an end...
Embedded software is a preferred choice for implementing system functionality in modern System-on-Chip (SoC) designs, due to the high flexibility, and lower engineering costs pro...
Correctly specifying requirements for composite systems is essential to system safety, particularly in a distributed development environment. Goal-oriented requirements engineerin...
This paper discusses a reliable group communication system using active messages to update shared objects. We discuss the model, implementation techniques, and our preliminary per...
