Weakly-hard models have been used to analyse real-time systems subject to patterns of
deadline hits and misses. However, the tools that are available in the literature have a set of …

This paper considers control systems with failures in the feedback channel, that occasionally
lead to loss of the control input signal. A useful approach for modeling such failures is to …

Multi-core platforms are becoming increasingly prevalent in cyber-physical systems such as
automobiles and robots. However, contention for shared resources makes it challenging to …

Abstract A Command Governor (CG) is an optimization-based add-on scheme to a nominal
closed-loop system. It is used to enforce state and control constraints by modifying reference …

The policy used to implement a control algorithm in a real-time system can significantly affect
the quality of control. In this paper, we present a method to adapt the controller …

Control theory allows one to design controllers that are robust to external disturbances,
model simplification, and modelling inaccuracy. Researchers have investigated whether the …

Modern embedded software includes complex functionalities and routines, often
implemented by splitting the code across different tasks. Such tasks communicate their …

6G systems, such as Large Intelligent Surfaces, will require distributed, complex, and
coordinated decisions through-out a very heterogeneous and cell free infrastructure. This …

Safety-critical systems have to absorb accidental and malicious faults to obtain high mean-
times-to-failures (MTTFs). Traditionally, this is achieved through re-execution or replication …

Cyber-physical systems (CPS) increasingly use multicore processors in order to satisfy
power and computational requirements. To exploit the architectural parallelism offered by …
