The Real-Time Specification for Java (RTSJ) [10] is becoming a popular choice in the world of real-time programming. However, the complexities introduced by RTSJ bring the needs ...
It is becoming more important to design systems capable of performing high-level management and control tasks in interactive dynamic environments. At the same time, it is difficul...
Physics-based animation programs can often be modeled in terms of hybrid automata. A hybrid automaton includes both discrete and continuous dynamical variables. The discrete varia...
In the Sesame framework, we develop a modeling and simulation environment for the efficient design space exploration of heterogeneous embedded systems. Since Sesame recognizes se...
This paper uses robot experience to explore key concepts of autonomy, life and being. Unfortunately, there are no widely accepted definitions of autonomy, life or being. Using a ne...
