The aim of query-based sampling is to obtain a sufficient, representative sample of an underlying (text) collection. Current measures for assessing sample quality are too coarse gr...
The exact knowledge of the heat flow in heterojunction bipolar transistors (HBT) during power operation is an important key factor for the systematic improvement of power density,...
Reliability and predictability of the timing behavior have shown to be major issues for wireless sensor network deployments. Real-time requirements presented by several application...
A large number of user requests execute (often concurrently) within a server system. A single request may exhibit fluctuating hardware characteristics (such as instruction comple...
The soundness of device drivers generally cannot be verified in isolation, but has to take into account the reactions of the hardware devices. In critical embedded systems, interf...
