Comprehending testing of distributed embedded systems

Toward an environment for comprehending distributed systems

Many modern software systems are often large, distributed, written in more than one programming language, and developed using pre-built components. This paper presents the results of the first phase of a project to develop an environment that supports the comprehension of distributed systems. The environment has a layered architecture consisting of three subsystems: data gathering, data reposit...

On Distributed Embedded Systems

Thinking of distributed embedded systems (DES)—let alone the more general area of embedded computing—as a unified topic is difficult. Nevertheless, it is a vastly important topic and potentially represents a revolution in information technology (IT). DES is driven by the increasing capabilities and ever-declining costs of computing and communications devices, resulting in networked systems of e...

Synthesis of Distributed Embedded Systems

This paper presents a new approach for modeling and synthesis of distributed embedded. These systems are represented as task graphs and modeled using finite domain constraints. The synthesis of such models into a distributed architecture consisting of microprocessors, ASICs and communication devices, is then defined as an optimization problem and it is solved using constraint solving techniques...
