A recent trend in Ubiquitous Computing is that embedded software (e.g. in production machines, wired or wireless networked sensors and actuators, or RFID readers) directly offers W...
Embedded real-time systems must satisfy not only logical functional requirements but also para-functional properties such as timeliness, Quality of Service (QoS) and reliability. W...
— We developed an SMT processor that allows a static WCET analysis of several hard real-time threads and uses the remaining resources for soft or non real-time threads. The analy...
