The Real-time Specification for Java extends the Java platform to support real-time processing and introduces a region-based memory model, called scoped memory, which side-steps ...
We identify here various kinds of failure conditions and robustness issues that arise in context-aware pervasive computing applications. Such conditions are related to failures in...
Fault screeners are a new breed of fault identification technique that can probabilistically detect if a transient fault has affected the state of a processor. We demonstrate that...
