We describe a distributed, multimedia application which is being developed in the framework of the ESPRIT-IV Project 21012 EFTOS (Embedded Fault-Tolerant Supercomputing). The application dynamically sets up a hierarchy of HTML pages…
This chapter serves as an introduction to systems engineering focused on the broad issues surrounding realizing complex integrated systems. What is a system? We pose a number of possible definitions and perspectives, but leave open the…
In this paper we present a new simulation model designed to evaluate the dependability in distributed systems. This model extends the MONARC simulation model with new capabilities for capturing reliability, safety, availability, security,…
Software-intensive Systems-of-Systems (SoS) refer to an arrangement of managerially and operationally independent systems(i.e., constituent systems), which work collaboratively towards the achievement of global missions. Because some SoS…
An Intrusion Detection System (IDS) aims to alert users of incoming attacks by deploying a detector that monitors network traffic continuously. As an effort to increase detection capabilities, a set of independent IDS detectors typically…
The advent of Large Multimodal Models (LMMs) offers a promising technology to tackle the limitations of modular design in autonomous driving, which often falters in open-world scenarios requiring sustained environmental understanding and…
Modeling and Simulation (M&S) for system design and prototyping is practiced today both in the industry and academia. M&S are two different areas altogether and have specific objectives. However, most of the times these two separate areas…
The concept of the "modulus" in the CAD system drawings is characterized, being a base of developing of the problem-oriented extensions. The modulus consists of visible geometric elements of the drawing and invisible parametric…
Multimodal desire understanding, a task closely related to both emotion and sentiment that aims to infer human intentions from visual and textual cues, is an emerging yet underexplored task in affective computing with applications in social…
We describe AMUSE, the Astrophysical Multipurpose Software Environment, a programming framework designed to manage multi-scale, multi-physics simulations in a hierarchical, extensible, and internally consistent way. Constructed as a…
Robotic systems are multi-dimensional entities, combining both hardware and software, that are heavily dependent on, and influenced by, interactions with the real world. They can be variously categorised as embedded, cyberphysical,…
In the domain of multimodal intent recognition (MIR), the objective is to recognize human intent by integrating a variety of modalities, such as language text, body gestures, and tones. However, existing approaches face difficulties…
This paper takes a new look at Cell-free Massive MIMO (multiple-input multiple-output) through the lens of the dynamic cooperation cluster framework from the Network MIMO literature. The purpose is to identify and address scalability issues…
This book is the result of a seminar in which we reviewed multimodal approaches and attempted to create a solid overview of the field, starting with the current state-of-the-art approaches in the two subfields of Deep Learning individually.…
The research objective is to design a blended learning of system programming for software engineering bachelors. Under blended learning we understand the way of implementing the content of the training, which integrates classroom and…
DevOps can be best explained as people working together to conceive, build and deliver secure software at top speed. DevOps practices enable software development (dev) and operations (ops) teams to accelerate delivery through automation,…
State of the art component-based software collections - such as FOSS distributions - are made of up to dozens of thousands components, with complex inter-dependencies and conflicts. Given a particular installation of such a system, each…
MFEM is an open-source, lightweight, flexible and scalable C++ library for modular finite element methods that features arbitrary high-order finite element meshes and spaces, support for a wide variety of discretization approaches and…
As distributed systems grow in scale and complexity, the need for flexible automation of systems management functions also grows. We outline a framework for building tools that provide distributed, scalable, declarative, modular, and…
Multicasting is an efficient technique for simultaneously transmitting common messages from the base station (BS) to multiple mobile users (MUs). Multicast scheduling over multiple channels, which aims to jointly minimize the energy…
