In ROS (Robot Operating System), most applications in time-and safety-critical domain are
constructed in the form of callback chains with data dependencies. Due to the shortcomings …

Control systems are by design robust to various disturbances, ranging from noise to
unmodelled dynamics. Recent work on the weakly hard model---applied to controllers---has …

Future autonomous systems will employ complex sensing, computation, and communication
components for their perception, planning, control, and coordination, and could operate in …

Weakly-hard systems are real-time systems that can tolerate occasional deadline misses in
a bounded manner. Compared with traditional systems with hard deadline constraints, they …

Many cyber-physical applications consist of chains of tasks. Such tasks are often loosely
dependent, meaning task execution is time-triggered and independent of the update rate of …

Many safety-critical real-time systems operate under harsh environment and are subject to
soft errors caused by transient or intermittent faults. It is critical and yet often very challenging …

We introduce SAW, a tool for safety analysis of weakly-hard systems, in which traditional
hard timing constraints are relaxed to allow bounded deadline misses for improving design …

Recent applications of the Internet of Things and cyber-physical systems require the
integration of many sensing and control tasks into resource-constrained embedded devices …

During the operation of many real-time safety-critical systems, there are often strong needs
for adapting to a dynamic environment or evolving mission objectives, eg, increasing …

The rapid development of autonomous driving poses new research challenges for on-
vehicle computing system. The execution time of autonomous driving tasks heavily depends …
