Memory access violations are a leading source of unreliability in C programs. As evidence of
this problem, a variety of methods exist that retrofit C with software checks to detect memory …

Reliable sensor network software is difficult to create: applications are concurrent and
distributed, hardware-based memory protection is unavailable, and severe resource …

Video surveillance enabled by Internet of Things (IoT) devices, such as smart cameras, has
become a popular set of applications recently with the trend of adopting IoT in multimedia …

Embedded systems usually lack virtual memory and are vulnerable to memory overflow
since they lack a mechanism to detect overflow or use swap space thereafter. We present a …

The integrated modular avionics (IMA) has been widely deployed on the new designed
aircraft to replace the traditional federated avionics. Hosted in different partitions which are …

An exemplary system for wrapping an intellectual property core (IP) bus master (s), can
include, for example, a plurality of IP cores associated with the IP core bus master (s), and a …

With reference to an embedded system featuring no support for memory management, we
present a model of a protection system based on passwords. At the hardware level, our …

The integrated modular avionics (IMA) network consists of a number of computing modules
capable of supporting numerous applications of differing critical and non-critical levels. In …

Random access memory (RAM) is tightly constrained in the least expensive, lowest-power
embedded systems such as sensor network nodes and portable consumer electronics. The …

With the increasing capabilities and resources available on microcontrollers, there is a trend
in the embedded industry to integrate multiple software functions on a single system to save …
