• The Rippes associated team gathers the SPADES team from Inria Grenoble, the Ptolemy group from UC Berkeley (EECS Department), and the Embedded Systems Research group from U. of Auckland (ECE Department). The planned research seeks to reconcile two contradictory objectives of embedded systems, more predictability and more adaptivity. We propose to address these issues by exploring two complementary research directions: (1) by starting from a classical concurrent C or Java programming language and enhancing it to provide more predictability, and (2) by starting from a very predictable model of computation (SDF) and enhancing it to provide more adaptivity.
