The defining characteristic of event-based control is that feedback loops are only closed when indicated by a triggering condition that takes recent information about the system into account. This stands in contrast to periodic control…
The transformation to smart factories and the automation of mobile robotics is partly driven by a growing availability of ubiquitous cloud technologies. In cyber-physical systems, such as control systems, critical parts can be migrated to a…
The complexity of multimedia applications in terms of intensity of computation and heterogeneity of treated data led the designers to embark them on multiprocessor systems on chip. The complexity of these systems on one hand and the…
