Embedded Control Systems: Some Issues and Solutions

Embedded control systems are becoming ubiquitous in control applications. They combine the properties of computer embedded system with newly designed complex controllers where flexible, safe and reconfigurable operations are required. The aim of this paper is to grasp the main features of these systems, analyse the main problems and present some solutions already developed by the authors. A new...

Embedded Soliton Solutions: A Variational Study

Embedded solitons(ES) represent solitary waves which reside inside the continuous spectrum of a nonlinear-wave system. This type of solitons was first reported by Yang et al. [1] in optical models characterized by opposing dispersion and competing nonlinearities at fundamental and second harmonics. More specifically, optical media with quadratic χ and cubic χ nonlinear susceptibilities can supp...

Embedded Security Solutions for Automotive Applications

In this paper we present a number of architectural security solutions based upon concrete hardware components such as customized security controllers, trusted platform modules (TPMs), “security boxes”, FPGAs and ASICs. We analyze benefits and disadvantages of each solution proposed in terms of physical and cryptographic security, costs, needed and achievable performance. We also discuss the con...
