To compare the outcomes of participatory and user-centered contextual design, case study methods and the Activity Checklist derived from Activity Theory are used to analyze two sy...
Discrete event simulation can be used for virtual prototyping of new manufacturing facilities. Models built for this purpose must be easy to use, flexible, and provide a realistic...

Innovations from multiple directions have been proposed to improve software reliability. Unfortunately, many of the innovations are not fully exploited by programmers. To bridge t...
We present a design method (HASoC) for the lifecycle modelling of embedded systems that are targeted primarily, but not necessarily, at SoC implementations. The object-oriented de...
— We consider the design of optimal static feedback gains for interconnected systems subject to architectural constraints on the distributed controller. These constraints are in ...
