Prevention of pedestrian accidents.

Child pedestrian accidents are the most common road traffic accident resulting in injury. Much of the existing work on road traffic accidents is based on analysing clusters of accidents despite evidence that child pedestrian accidents tend to be more dispersed than this. This paper analyses pedestrian accidents in 573 children aged 0-11 years by a locally derived deprivation score for the years...

Tool-Supported Timing Analysis of Automotive Embedded Systems

Embedded Systems Introductory Course supported by remote experiments

Laboratories for introductory digital system design courses have, commonly, high rates of laboratory’s space and time occupation. In this paper, a remote laboratory is proposed in order to alleviate laboratory’s occupation, although increasing the usage of their equipments by students. Local and remote accesses to the experiments are possible, supported by the LabView environment, and complemen...
