We introduce a temporal logic for the speci cation of real-time systems. Our logic, TPTL, employs a novel quanti er construct for referencing time: the freeze quanti er binds a var...
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...
Hybrid algorithms that combine genetic algorithms with the Nelder-Mead simplex algorithm have been effective in solving certain optimization problems. In this article, we apply a s...

∑= += N i firiT 1 0 )( ττ (1) This paper presents a time-domain method for estimating the jitter in ring oscillators that is due to power supply noise. The method is used to a...
In this paper we propose an ontology based representation of the affective states for context aware applications that allows expressing the complex relations that are among the af...
