Software Technologies for Embedded and Ubiquitous Systems

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 7th IFIP WG 10.2 International Workshop on Software Technologies for Future Embedded and Ubiquitous Systems, SEUS 2009, held in Newport Beach, CA, USA, in November 2009.

The 20 revised full papers presented together with three invited talks were carefully reviewed and selected from numerous submissions for inclusion in the book. The papers address all current issues in embedded and distributed computing, ubiquitous systems, sensor networks, and middleware with a special respect of dependability, real-time, human-computer interaction, autonomy, resource constraints, etc.

Klappentext

The 7th IFIP Workshop on Software Technologies for Future Embedded and Ubiquitous Systems (SEUS) followed on the success of six previous editions in Capri, Italy (2008), Santorini, Greece (2007), Gyeongju, Korea (2006), Seattle, USA (2005), Vienna, Austria (2004), and Hokodate, Japan (2003), establishing SEUS as one of the emerging workshops in the ?eld of embedded and ubiq- tous systems. SEUS 2009 continued the tradition of fostering cross-community scienti?c excellence and establishing strong links between researchand industry. The ?elds of both embedded computing and ubiquitous systems have seen considerable growth over the past few years. Given the advances in these ?elds, and also those in the areas of distributed computing, sensor networks, midd- ware, etc. , the area of ubiquitous embedded computing is now being envisioned as the wayof the future. The systems and technologies that will arise in support of ubiquitous embedded computing will undoubtedly need to address a variety of issues, including dependability, real-time, human-computer interaction, - tonomy, resource constraints, etc. All of these requirements pose a challenge to the research community. The purpose of SEUS 2009 was to bring together - searchersand practitioners with an interest in advancing the state of the artand the state of practice in this emerging ?eld, with the hope of fostering new ideas, collaborations and technologies. SEUS 2009 would not have been possible without the e?ort of many people.
