We propose two novel integration techniques -- bypass and bookkeeping -- in the memory controller to address the cache coherence compatibility issue of a non-shared bus heterogene...
The single-path software/hardware architecture has been conceived with the goal to support real-time task execution with highly predictable timing. By using WCET-oriented programm...
Nowadays the design of user interfaces has become a discipline of great importance in Software Engineering, mainly due to the increasing impact that a high quality user interface h...
