In this paper we describe a scenario for supporting healthcare at home and identify some demands for intelligibility in this situation. In such a system we have identified a need for flexible adding and removing medical devices, and to support changing functionality depending on if a nurse is present or not. We suggest that this kind of variability can be addressed by introducing guards in our rul

A 14.5 GHz Injection Locked Oscillator (ILO) with digital output phase control has been implemented in a 90 nm CMOS process. It is intended for LO signal generation in integrated phased array transceivers. The chip, measuring 360x530 μm2 including pads, was characterized using on-wafer probing. It consumes 9.4 mA from a 1.2 V supply and has a 1.4 GHz frequency range where full 3600 phase range is

We consider the problem of detecting exploits based on return-oriented programming. In contrast to previous works we investigate to which extent we can detect ROP payloads by only analysing streaming data, i.e., we do not assume any modifications to the target machine, its kernel or its libraries. Neither do we attempt to execute any potentially malicious code in order to determine if it is an att

This submission is devoted to optimization of networks that permanently experience fluctuations of the capacity available on their links. This is an important and novel topic since limited link availability is a fundamental feature in wireless networks and yet majority of work in survivable network design is restricted to the total single link failures. We assume a given finite set of network stat

Test-Driven Development (TDD) is a software development approach where test cases are written before actual development of the code in iterative cycles. Context: TDD has gained attention of many software practitioners during the last decade since it has contributed several benefits to the software development process. However, empirical evidence of its dominance in terms of internal code quality,

At the same time as our dependence on IT systems increases, the number of reports of problems caused by failures of critical IT systems has also increased. Today almost every system or service, e.g., water, power supply, transportation, is dependent on IT systems, and failure of these systems has serious and negative effects on society. In general, governmental organizations are responsible for de

This contribution comprises a comparison of capacity performances of MIMO terminal antenna configurations for smart phones at 2.65 GHz, measured in an extensive 2×2 MIMO measurement campaign in noise- and interference-limited urban environments. Whereas, on average along the route, the performances where dictated by the received power, locally the eigenvalue dispersion of the communication channel

Today almost every system or service, e.g., water, power supply, transportation, etc. is dependent on IT systems, and failure of these systems have serious and negative effects on the society. IT incidents are critical for the society as they can stop the function of critical systems and services. Moreover, in a software engineering context risk analysis is an important activity for the developmen

A short range FM transmitter is presented. It uses an architecture where the output frequency of a phase locked loop (PLL) is modulated by varying the division number of the feedback divider, using the 1-bit output of a ΔΣ ADC. The measured total harmonic distortion (THD) plus noise is less than 1% at 75 kHz deviation. The transmitter is fully integrated in a 0.13µm CMOS process and the core area

A divider-less all digital phase locked loop (ADPLL) with a high frequency resolution is implemented. All blocks excluding digitally controlled oscillator (DCO) and time to digital converter (TDC) are realized in standard digital design which consumes less power. The DCO core adopts an improved source-varactor LC resonant tank to achieve a 20KHz frequency resolution. With the help of an additional
