We introduce PLC-Automata as a new class of automata which are tailored to deal with real-time properties of Programmable Logic Controllers (PLCs). These devices are often used in...
A review of the various models of New Product Development (NPD) process shows that although different approaches have been proposed, they are in fact all variants on a linear them...
Moving object detection is essential for real-time surveillance; however, it is challenging to support moving object detection in a timely fashion due to the compute-intensive natu...
System robustness is a major concern in the design of efficient and reliable state-of-the-art heterogenous embedded real-time systems. Due to complex component interactions, reso...
CORBA is an emerging middleware infrastructure with open standardization that is receiving a good acceptance since it makes easier to program distributed objects. CORBA is being e...
