Shifting away from the traditional mass production approach, the process industry is moving towards more agile, cost-effective and dynamic process operation (next-generation smart plants). This warrants the development of control systems…
Reconfiguration is one of the central mechanisms in distributed systems. Due to failures and connectivity disruptions, the very set of service replicas (or servers) and their roles in the computation may have to be reconfigured over time.…
The re-use of pre-designed blocks is a well-known concept of the software development. This technique has been applied to System-on-Chip (SoC) design whose complexity and heterogeneity are growing. The re-use is made thanks to high level…
Context-aware adaptation is a central aspect of pervasive computing applications, enabling them to adapt and perform tasks based on contextual information. One of the aspects of context-aware adaptation is reconfiguration in which bindings…
Multi-tenancy for latency-critical applications leads to re-source interference and unpredictable performance. Core reconfiguration opens up more opportunities for colocation,as it allows the hardware to adjust to the dynamic performance…
We present a framework that takes a concurrent program composed of unsynchronized processes, along with a temporal specification of their global concurrent behaviour, and automatically generates a concurrent program with synchronization…
Reconfiguration demand is increasing due to frequent requirement changes for manufacturing systems. Recent approaches aim at investigating feasible configuration alternatives from which they select the optimal one. This relies on processes…
The SPaCIFY project, which aims at bringing advances in MDE to the satellite flight software industry, advocates a top-down approach built on a domain-specific modeling language named Synoptic. In line with previous approaches to real-time…
Programming embedded systems applications involve writing concurrent, event-driven and timing-aware programs. Traditionally, such programs are written in low-level machine-oriented programming languages like C or Assembly. We present an…
In this paper, a framework for the combination of robust fractional order CRONE control with non-linear reset is given for both first and second generation CRONE control. General design rules are derived and presented for these CRONE reset…
The almost unlimited possibilities to customize the logic in an FPGA are one of the main reasons for the versatility of these devices. Partial reconfiguration exploits this capability even further by allowing to replace logic in predefined…
Many real-world control systems, such as the smart grid and human sensorimotor control systems, have decentralized components that react quickly using local information and centralized components that react slowly using a more global view.…
In this paper, we develop a theoretical framework for goal-oriented communication assisted by reconfigurable meta-surfaces in the context of networked control systems. The relation to goal-oriented communication stems from the fact that…
This paper presents an application of specification based runtime verification techniques to control mobile robots in a reactive manner. In our case study, we develop a layered control architecture where runtime monitors constructed from…
Several embedded application domains for reconfigurable systems tend to combine frequent changes with high performance demands of their workloads such as image processing, wearable computing and network processors. Time multiplexing of…
Based on the two observations that diverse applications perform better on different multicore architectures, and that different phases of an application may have vastly different resource requirements, Pal et al. proposed a novel…
This paper explores some variations of a hierarchical control framework that has been recently proposed. The framework is dedicated to control a network of interconnected subsystems such as the ones describing cryogenic processes or power…
A decentralized switched controller is developed for dynamic agents to perform global formation configuration convergence while maintaining network connectivity and avoiding collision within agents and between stationary obstacles, using…
To promote structurally flexible controllers in self-adaptive software systems, this paper proposes the use of micro-controllers. Instead of generic monolithic controllers, like Rainbow, we advocate the use of service-specific…
We address the problem of synthesizing reactive controllers for cyber-physical systems subject to Signal Temporal Logic (STL) specifications in the presence of adversarial inputs. Given a finite horizon, we define a reactive hierarchy of…
