HAIL: a language for easy and correct device access
It is difficult to write device drivers. One factor is that writing low-level code for accessing devices and manipulating their registers is tedious and error-prone. For many syst...

Distributed-code generation from hybrid systems models for time-delayed multirate systems
Hybrid systems are an appropriate formalism to model embedded systems as they capture the theme of continuous dynamics with discrete control. A simple extension, a network of comm...

Fault Links: Exploring the Relationship Between Module and Fault Types
Fault links represent relationships between the types of mistakes made and the type of module being developed or modified. The existence of such fault links can be used to guide co...
