— In this paper a new approach to optimize nuclear power plant designs based on global risk reduction are described. In design the focus is on as components quality as redundancy...
Many wireless sensor nodes (motes) interface with slow peripheral devices, requiring the processor to wait. These delays waste time, energy and power, which are valuable but limit...
The relentless increase in multimedia embedded system application requirements as well as improvements in IC design technology have motivated the deployment of chip multiprocessor ...
