HP Envy 15-1050nr

A big brother to HP's 13-inch Envy 13, this upscale 15-inch model crams more computing power into a midsize laptop than anyone outside of Alienware's m15x. And while that system is a 10-pound monster, the Envy 15 manages to be both slim and reasonably lightweight, partially by ditching the internal...

Separation of Distributed Real-Time Embedded Concerns With Theme/UML

Model-Driven Engineering MDE addresses plat-form complexity by abstracting platform-independent models for subsequent transformation to platform-specific models. This facilitates the design of a single system model and the subsequent generation of multiple model transformations targeted towards specific platforms. However, the increasing complexity of Distributed Real-time Embedded DRE systems complicates the development...

Application of Middleware and Agent Technologies to a Representative Sensor Network

Sensor networks are Distributed Real-time Embedded DRE systems that often operate in open environments where operating conditions, workload, resource availability, and connectivity cannot be accurately characterized a priori. The South East Alaska MOnitoring Network for Science, Telecommunications, Education, and Research SEAMONSTER project illustrates many common system management and dynamic operation...

The Design and Performance of Configurable Component Middleware for Distributed Real-Time and Embedded Systems

This paper makes three contributions to research on QoS-enabled component middleware for DRE systems in the context of the Component-Integrated ACE ORB CIAO. First, it describes the design of CIAO's static component configuration mechanisms, which enhance configurability by avoiding features that are not supported by key real-time platforms, while reducing...
