This paper is related to event-driven embedded systems whose function can be divided into the real-time (RT) and non-RT parts. Such a system must be designed so that all predetermined timing constraints are met at runtime, even in adverse conditions such as an excessive rate of events caused by interrupts. In other words, the RT part is expected not to fail because of its criticality. In the paper,...
The work presented in this paper aims to support and promote the learning process in introductory computer science courses through the Web-based, adaptive, activity-oriented learning environment known as Supporting Collaboration and Adaptation in a Learning Environment (SCALE). The environment engages students actively in the learning process and supports them with multiple informative and tutoring...
The advancement in wireless networking technologies and portable devices has motivated the explosive interests in heterogeneous wireless environments. However, the mobility and diversity of both devices and users bring new challenges for the design of mobile Internet applications. Seamless mobility support has always been one of the key problems. In this paper, we study context-aware adaptation for...
Digital systems have been rapidly evolving within highly dynamic and unstructured environments, where the lack of a central authority forces entities to interact with each other through collaboration and negotiation. Digital agents often use Trust models in order to compute the level of trustworthiness of the partner they want to collaborate with. Unfortunately, due to the evolution speed of open...
This paper takes the physical notion of personal space as the basis for a vision of an analogous logical notion of a personal eSpace. Convergence between mobile and Internet technologies and the future enhancement of both will result in a world which is so complex, so open to abuse and so alien to our common sense reasoning that automated protection mechanisms based on understandable metaphors will...
