Advances in semiconductor technologies have placed MPSoCs center stage as a standard architecture for embedded applications of ever increasing complexity. Efficient utilization of...
Wireless Sensor and Actor Networks (WSANs) are composed of a large number of heterogeneous nodes called sensors and actors. The collaborative operation of sensors enables the dist...

A common computational model in distributed embedded systems is that the nodes exchange signals via a network. Most often a signal represents the state of some physical device and...
The Linux cluster considered in this paper, formed from shuttle box XPC nodes with 2 GHz Athlon processors connected by dual Gb Ethernet switches, is relatively easily constructed...
