— With the increasing number of embedded computer systems being used in safety critical applications the testing and assessment of a system’s fault tolerance properties become ...
Abstract — Since sensor/actuator networks are to be used in error-prone environments, it is required that media access protocols for such networks are tolerant to failures. Field...
— Java, a popular programming language on desktop systems, is rarely used in embedded systems. Some features of Java, like thread support in the language, could greatly simplify ...
— Steadily growing microcontroller capabilities at an ever decreasing cost per operation encourage the development of more extensive and smarter applications in the domain of emb...
The purpose of our on going research would be to track entities, which enter their field of vision over the sensor network. Based on their sightings, they maintain a dynamic cache ...

— Testing and verification are important methods for gaining confidence in the reliability of a software product. Keeping this confidence up is especially difficult for softw...
- Software agents have been already introduced successfully in the scope of embedded technology as smart controllers of intelligent systems. This paper presents a further applicati...
— Ubiquitous computing provides services to users, according to their current situation. Interactions with such programs are as implicit as possible. We find among the applicati...
Abstract — Control systems are often software-intensive applications that are becoming extremely complex as new functionality is required. Complexity is a real engineering challe...
