—Fast frequency acquisition is crucial for phase-locked loops (PLLs) used in portable devices, as on-chip clocks are frequently scaled down or up in order to manage power consump...
For many safety-critical systems a safety case is built as part of the certification or acceptance process. The safety case assembles evidence to justify that the design and imple...
Evolution of software systems is characterized by inevitable changes of software and increasing software complexity, which in turn may lead to huge maintenance and development cos...
Many wireless sensor nodes (motes) interface with slow peripheral devices, requiring the processor to wait. These delays waste time, energy and power, which are valuable but limit...
