Projects:
Energy-constrained real-time systems, such as implantable medical devices, are prevalent in modern life. These systems demand its software to fulfill both properties of safe and energy-efficient task executions. Regarding safety, these systems must execute their tasks within execution-time and energy bounds since resource-budget violations potentially cause danger to life. In order to guarantee the system's safe execution with the given time and energy resources, static program-code analysis tools…
Within the wide subject of resilience in networked worlds ResPECT focuses on a core element of all networked systems: sensor- and actuator-nodes in cyber-physical systems. Communication up to today is understood and implemented as an auxiliary functionality of embedded systems. The system itself is disruption-tolerant and able to handle power failures or in a limited scope even hardware problems, but the communication isn't part of the overall design. In the best case it can make use of the underlying…
