A proposed design environment for dependable embedded systems (1997)
Conference Proceeding
Bass, J. (1997). A proposed design environment for dependable embedded systems. . https://doi.org/10.1049/ic%3A19971139

Proposals for an integrated design environment to ease the design of complex embedded systems are presented. Embedded systems are computer-based systems which must respond to external stimuli within time scales determined by the external environment....

Design tools for hybrid control systems (1997)
Book Chapter
Hajji, M., Bass, J., Browne, A., & Fleming, P. (1997). Design tools for hybrid control systems. . Springer. https://doi.org/10.1007/BFb0014717

Hybrid systems exhibit a variety of discrete and continuous behaviour. Extensions to the Development Framework, an environment for real-time control system design, are described here. These extensions allow the management of discrete events such as m... Read More about Design tools for hybrid control systems.

Experimental comparison of voting algorithms in cases of disagreement (1997)
Conference Proceeding
Bass, J., Latif-Shabgahi, G., & Bennett, S. (1997). Experimental comparison of voting algorithms in cases of disagreement. . https://doi.org/10.1109/EURMIC.1997.617368

Voting algorithms are used to mask erroneous results from redundant subsystems (variants) in fault tolerant systems. While voting algorithms are well known and widely used, the authors are not aware of any detailed investigation of voter behaviour in...

Testing fault-tolerant systems using a unified error model (1997)
Conference Proceeding
Tyrrell, A., & Bass, J. (1997). Testing fault-tolerant systems using a unified error model. . https://doi.org/10.1109/EMSCNT.1997.658455

This paper presents a method of designing test data based around a unified error model. The model allows error 'surfaces' to be defined for a given application, and used to define a test region(s) that give a measure of test coverage. The paper appli...
