Real Time embedded system designers are facing extreme challenges in underlying architectural design selection. It involves the selection of a programmable, concurrent, heterogene...
This paper presents the implementation of a video segmentation unit used for embedded automated video surveillance systems. Various aspects of the underlying segmentation algorith...
The execution time of software for hard real-time systems must be predictable. Further, safe and not overly pessimistic bounds for the worst-case execution time (WCET) must be com...
Unique challenges are present when one tries to build distributed real-time applications using standard o -the-shelf systems which are in common use but are not necessarily design...
In recent years the Unified Modeling Language (UML) including its profiles gained increasing acceptance as a specification language for modeling real-time systems. It is crucia...
