Opis

Real-time embedded systems are driving an information revolution with their pervasion in our everyday lives. The design of heterogeneous embedded systems poses a host of technical challenges that differ from those faced by general-purpose computers since they have much larger design space and are more complicated to optimize in terms of cost, timing, and power. This book provides state-of-the art information on new trends and applications in real-time embedded systems. Describing the theoretical frameworks behind these systems, the authors provide a systematic reference on the foundations behind the design, optimization, control, and networking of these systems.
