In single processor architectures, computationallyintensive functions are typically accelerated using hardware accelerators, which exploit the concurrency in the function code to ...
Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs) have long held the promise of allowing designers to create systems with performance levels close to custom circuits but with a software-like...
Building service-based architectures has become a major area of interest since the advent of Web services. Modelling these architectures is a central activity. Model-driven archite...
Open component architectures, such as CORBA, allow software systems to be composed of independent components. The behavior of components is described with a mixture of an interfac...
As embedded systems continue to face increasingly higher performance requirements, deeply pipelined processor architectures are being employed to meet desired system performance. ...
