This paper deals with the real-time implementation of feedback controllers. In particular, it
provides an analysis of the stability property of closed-loop systems that include a controller …

Control systems are by design robust to various disturbances, ranging from noise to
unmodelled dynamics. Recent work on the weakly hard model---applied to controllers---has …

As embedded systems architectures become more complex and distributed, checking the
safety of feedback control loops implemented on them becomes a crucial problem for …

The real-time implementation of periodic controllers requires solving a co-design problem, in
which the choice of the controller sampling period is a crucial element. Classic design …

With the emergence of complex autonomous systems, multiple control tasks are increasingly
being implemented on shared computational platforms. Due to the resource-constrained …

Software in autonomous systems, owing to performance requirements, is deployed on
heterogeneous hardware comprising task specific accelerators, graphical processing units …

Most off-the-shelf embedded control systems lack proper mechanisms to handle
computational overload conditions. Therefore, delays may accumulate and produce …

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 …

Most works in schedulability analysis theory are based on the assumption that constraints on
the performance of the application can be expressed by a very limited set of timing …

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 …
