We present a framework that will enable scalable analysis and design of graceful degradation in distributed embedded systems. We define graceful degradation in terms of utility. A...
The di culty of embedded system co-design is increasing rapidly due to the increasing complexity of individual parts, the variety of parts available and pressure to use multiple p...
IPCHINOOK is a design tool for distributed embedded systems. It gains leverage from the use of a carefully chosen set of design ions that raise the level of designer interaction d...
