Software components are modular and can enable post-deployment update, but their high overhead in runtime and memory is prohibitive for many embedded systems. This paper proposes ...
With the standardization of IEEE 802.11, there has been an explosive growth of wireless local area networks (WLAN). Recently, this cost effective technology is being developed aggr...
In this paper we discuss variational data assimilation using the STEM atmospheric Chemical Transport Model. STEM is a multiscale model and can perform air quality simulations and p...
The Java memory model described in Chapter 17 of the Java Language Specification gives constraints on how threads interact through memory. This chapter is hard to interpret and po...
Once the battery becomes fully discharged, a battery-powered portable electronic system goes off-line. Therefore, it is important to take the battery behavior into account. A syst...
