Upper bounds on worst-case execution times, which are commonly called WCET, are a prerequisite for validating the temporal correctness of tasks in a real-time system. Due to the e...
We propose and evaluate the concept of a semantically-smart disk system (SDS). As opposed to a traditional “smart” disk, an SDS has detailed knowledge of how the file system ...
Fuel cells are clean power sources that have much higher energy densities and lifetimes compared to batteries. However, fuel cells have limited load following capabilities and can...
the level of abstraction in system design promises to enable faster exploration of the design space at early stages. While scheduling decision for embedded software has great impa...
