This position paper identifies three significant research challenges in support of deeply embedded system survivability: achieving dependability at the enterprise/embedded interface gateway, finding a viable security patch approach for embedded systems, and surviving run-time software faults.

With the increasing complexity of the emerging embedded real-time systems, traditional design approaches can not provide sufficient support for the development of these systems anymore. They especially lack the ability to trace and analyse real-time system properties. In this paper, we investigate the design difficulties for embedded real-time systems and propose several principles for coping w...

This paper introduces a few research studies being conducted that are using multicore embedded systems, highlighting the challenges and questions relevant to R&D (Research and Development) in computer systems architecture, focusing on design aspects and optimization of embedded systems that needs to run security solutions or cryptographical algorithms using hardware acceleration, aiming for goo...

Sensor networks have matured beyond academic research with industry now considering the advantages of using wireless sensors. With this growth, reliability and real-time demands increase, and thus timing becomes more and more relevant. Further, recent research has shown that current clock systems become a bottle neck as one pushes the duty-cycles of embedded systems beyond 0.01%. This work pres...
