Cyber-physical systems challenges: a needs analysis for collaborating embedded software systems
2015
Journal of Software and Systems Modeling
As product features came to increasingly rely on software, a network infrastructure helped factor out common hardware and offered sharing functionality for further innovation. ...
The intent is to contribute to a model-based research agenda in terms of design methods, implementation technologies, and organization challenges necessary to bring the next generation systems online. ...
This sharing mechanism contributes to such a tight integration that the systems become one emerging CPS as a system of systems. The result is illustrated in Fig. 1(c) . ...

Real-time resource-sharing under clustered scheduling
2011
Proceedings of the ninth ACM international conference on Embedded software - EMSOFT '11
A new mechanism to bound such inversions, termed priority donation, is presented and used to derive protocols for mutual exclusion, reader-writer exclusion, and k-exclusion. ...
The latter two protocols are also the first of their kind for the special cases of global and partitioned scheduling. ...
We thank Glenn Elliott for inspiring discussions concerning k-exclusion constraints and GPUs. ...
