To make pervasive computing a reality, we need better system support for building, deploying, and using pervasive applications. In this paper, we identify the unique requirements ...
Future networked appliances should be able to download new services or upgrades from the network and execute them locally. This flexibility is typically achieved by processors tha...
In this paper we present an approach to performance estimation for hard real-time systems. We consider architectures consisting of multiple processors. The scheduling policy is ba...
We present an approach to process scheduling for synthesis of safety-critical distributed embedded systems. Our system model captures both the flow of data and that of control. Th...
Following the ecological approach to visual perception, this paper presents an innovative framework for the design of multimodal systems. The proposal emphasises the role of the vi...
