As application complexity increases, modern embedded systems have adopted heterogeneous processing elements to enhance the computing capability or to reduce the power consumption. ...
— Many surgical robots use cable-conduit pairs in a pull-pull configuration to actuate the instruments and transmit power into the patient’s body. Friction between the cable an...
Self-healing systems focus on how to reducing the complexity and cost of the management of dependability policies and mechanisms without human intervention. This position paper pr...
Peer to peer (P2P) systems are moving from application specific architectures to a generic service oriented design philosophy. This raises interesting problems in connection with...
