Definition
Real-time systems play a considerable role in our society, and they cover a spectrum from the very simple to the very complex. Examples of current real-time systems include the control of domestic appliances like washing machines and televisions, the control of automobile engines, telecommunication switching systems, military command and control systems, industrial process control, flight control systems, and space shuttle and aircraft avionics.

All of these involve gathering data from the environment, processing of gathered data ....etc

Abstract—This paper presents the design, deployment, and evaluation of a real-world sensor network system in an active volcano—Mount St. Helens. In volcano monitoring, the maintenance is extremely hard and system robustness is one of the biggest concerns. However, most system research to date has focused more on performance improvement and less on system robustness. In our system design, to address this challenge, automatic fault detection and recovery mechanisms were designed to autonomously roll the system back to the initial state if exc ....etc

Abstract
As the number of Web images is increasing at a rapid rate, searching them semantically
presents a significant challenge. Many raw images are constantly uploaded with few meaningful
direct annotations of semantic content, limiting their search and discovery. In this pap ....etc

Abstract
This paper investigates a method for estimating a driver’s spontaneous frustration in the real world. In line with a specific definition of emotion, the proposed method integrates information about the environment, the driver’s emotional state, and the driver’s responses in a single model. Driving data are recorded using an instrumented vehicle on which multiple sensors are mounted. While driving, drivers also interact with an automatic speech recognition (ASR) system to retrieve and play music. Using a Bayesian network, ....etc

About ERP…
ERP refers to Enterprise Resource Planning…
The basic ideas behind ERP applications have a broad range applicability in everyday business applications.
NDI (ndigital.com) faced a challenge when rapid growth and aging technology threatened to stand in the way of company goals. Instead of enabling operational improvements, NDI's existing systems were impeding progress. Existing technology was causing missed deliveries and creating a high number of back orders. Inventory control was poor, and the planni ....etc

Abstract:
we present AdapSys, which is based on a fundamental unit that can perform at a very high level of abstraction - a multi-level controller and sensor hub that is completely software reconfigurable, including basic and ancillary functionality. In this scheme, each unit can act as a single complex controller as part of a locally controlled mesh, which in turn can be part of a wider distributed or hierarchical control network. All elements of this system consist of the same hardware, but have fundamentally fluid behaviors based on softwar ....etc

The X-Internet Connecting the Physical World with the Cyber World



Introducing the Future: The Extended Internet
Twenty years ago, it was almost unimaginable how the brick-sized cell phone device that
some top-level businesspeople were using would soon change our lives. A few years later,
when e-mail was introduced, it was hard to imagine all the information, entertainment,
convenience and communication that today’s Internet would bring. Similarly, the ....etc
