Achievement of quality in software design, while never easy, is made more difficult by the inherent complexity of hard real-time (HRT) design. Furthermore, timing requirements in...
We address the problem of restricting root’s ability to change arbitrary files on disk, in order to prevent abuse on most current desktop operating systems. The approach first...
Two overriding concerns in the development of embedded MPSoCs are ease of programming and hardware complexity. In this paper we present SoC-TM, an integrated HW/SW solution for tr...
