With today’s ever increasing demands on software, software developers must produce software that can be changed without the risk of degrading the software architecture. One way ...
This paper proposes a massively parallel hardware architecture for efficient tracing of incoherent rays, e.g. for global illumination. The general approach is centered around hier...
Abstract--Cyber-Physical Systems require distributed architectures to support safety critical real-time control. Kopetz' Time-Triggered Architectures (TTA) have been proposed ...
Abstract-- Complex robots with many interacting components in their control architectures are subject to component failures from which neither the control architecture nor the impl...
It is well known that software maintenance and evolution are expensive activities, both in terms of invested time and money. Reverse engineering activities support the obtainment ...
