Embedded, Cyber-Physical, and IoT Systems

This Festschrift is in honor of Marilyn Wolf, on the occasion ofher 60th birthday. Prof. Wolf is a renowned researcher and educator in Electrical andComputer Engineering, whohas made pioneering contributions inall of the major areasin Embedded, Cyber-Physical, and Internet of Things(IoT) Systems. This book provides a timely collection of contributions that cover important topics related to Smart Cameras, Hardware/SoftwareCo-Design, and Multimedia applications. Embeddedsystems are everywhere; cyber-physical systems enable monitoring and control of complex physicalprocesses with computers; and IoT technology is of increasing relevance in major application areas,including factory automation, and smart cities. Smart cameras and multimedia technologiesintroduce novel opportunities and challenges in embedded, cyber-physical and IoT applications.Advanced hardware/software co-designmethodologies provide valuable concepts and tools foraddressing these challenges. The diverse topics of the chapters in this Festschrift help to reflect the great breadth and depth of Marilyn Wolf's contributions in research and education. The chapters have been written by some of Marilyn's closest collaborators and colleagues.
