— When an adaptive software component is employed to select the best-performing implementation for a communication operation at runtime, the correctness of the decision taken str...
Cross-core application interference due to contention for shared on-chip and off-chip resources pose a significant challenge to providing application level quality of service (Qo...
In this work, our objective is to heuristically discover a simplified form of functional dependencies between variables called weak dependencies. Once discovered, these relations...
In some cases, minimum Sum-Of-Products (SOP) expressions of Boolean functions can be derived by detecting decomposition and observing the functional properties such as unateness, ...

We propose to introduce redundant interconnects for manufacturing yield and reliability improvement. By introducing redundant interconnects, the potential for open faults is reduc...
Concurrent programming is a complex task, even with modern languages such as Java who provide languagebased support for multithreading and synchronization. In addition to typical ...

2D-Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy is a powerful analytical method to elucidate the chemical structure of molecules. In contrast to 1D-NMR spectra, 2D-NMR spectra cor...
In this article, the problem of finding a tight estimate on the worst-case execution time (WCET) of a real-time program is addressed. The analysis is focused on straight-line code...
