The paper introduces a method to model embedded dependability-critical systems as AND-composition of Guarded Statecharts which are special UMLstatecharts. With Guarded Statecharts...
We propose a method to reuse unmodified device drivers and to improve system dependability using virtual machines. We run the unmodified device driver, with its original operating...
Analytical and simulative modeling for dependability and performance evaluation has been proven to be a useful and versatile approach in all the phases of the system life cycle. I...

We address in this paper the problem of optimal coding in the framework of region-based video coding systems, with a special stress on content-based functionalities. We present a ...
The widespread adoption of embedded microprocessor-based systems for safety critical applications mandates the use of co-design tools able to evaluate system dependability at ever...
