The idea of a combined reference model- and view-based specification approach has been proposed recently in the software engineering community. In this paper we present a specifica...

During its lifetime, embedded systems go through multiple changes to their runtime architecture. That is, threads, processes, and processor are added or removed to/from the softwa...
Performance characteristics, such as response time, throughput and scalability, are key quality attributes of distributed applications. Current practice, however, rarely applies s...
With the increase of amount of transistors which can be contained on a chip and the constant expectation for more sophisticated applications, the design of Systems-on-Chip (SoC) is...
In this paper, we apply the primal-dual decomposition and subgradient projection methods to solve the rate-distortion optimization problem with the constant bit rate constraint. T...
