We describe our first efforts to develop a set of off-the-shelf hardware components that ordinary people could connect to build a simple but useful class of embedded systems. The ...

One central issue in system structuring and quality prediction is the interdependencies of system modules. This paper proposes a novel technique for determining the operational co...
In deep sub-micron technology, the crosstalk effect between adjacent wires has become an important issue, especially between long on-chip buses. This effect leads to the increas...
The next ten years will see distributed real-time computer systems replacing many mechanical and hydraulic control systems in high-dependability applications. In these application...
Embedded systems are complex as a whole but consist of smaller independent modules minimally interacting with each other. This structure makes embedded systems amenable to composi...
