The integration of system and SW functions for efciency, performance and especially dependability is of interest from a research and system design perspective. In this paper, we p...
Programs fail mainly for two reasons: logic errors in the code, and exception failures. Exception failures can account for up to 2/3 of system crashes [6], hence are worthy of ser...
—Assurance Based Development (ABD) is a novel approach to the synergistic construction of critical software systems and their assurance arguments. In ABD, the need for assurance ...
— This paper focuses on the role of real-time operation support in mobile robot control architectures for service applications. We show that a control architecture with integrate...
