For memory constrained embedded systems code size is at least as important as performance. One way of increasing code density is to exploit compact instruction formats, e.g. ARM T...
Embedded systems are often operating under hard real-time constraints. Such systems are naturally described as time-bound reactions to external events, a point of view made manife...

We build an analytical model for an application utilizing master-slave paradigm. In the model, only three architecture parameters are used: latency, bandwidth and flop rate. Instea...
One of the typical features of distributed systems is the heterogeneity of its components (e.g. geographical spreading and different platform architectures), leading to interopera...

Several high-level programming languages for programming agents and robots have been proposed in recent years. Each of these languages has its own features and merits. It is still...
