In the era of Cyber Physical Systems, designers need to offer support for run-time adaptivity considering different constraints, including the internal status of the system. This work presents a run-time monitoring approach, based on the Performance Application Programming Interface, that offers a unified interface to transparently access both the...

Hyperspectral (HS) imaging presents itself as a non-contact, non-ionizing and non-invasive technique, proven to be suitable for medical diagnosis. However, the volume of information contained in these images makes difficult providing the surgeon with information about the boundaries in real-time. To that end, High-Performance-Computing (HPC) platfo...

The widening of the complexity-productivity gap in application development witnessed in the last years is becoming an important issue for the developers. New design methods try to automate most designers tasks to bridge this gap. In addition, new Models of Computation (MoCs), as those dataflow-based, ease the expression of parallelism within applic...

Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS) are interconnected devices, reactive and dynamic to sensed external and internal triggers. The H2020 CERBERO EU Project is developing a design environment composed by modelling, deployment and verification tools for adaptive CPS. This paper focuses on its efficient support for run-time self-adaptivity.

This paper presents a study of the adaptation of a Non-Linear Iterative Partial Least Squares (NIPALS) algorithm applied to Hyperspectral Imaging to a Massively Parallel Processor Array manycore architecture, which assembles 256 cores distributed over 16 clusters.

The use of hyperspectral imaging for medical applications is becoming more common in recent years. One of the main obstacles that researchers find when developing hyperspectral algorithms for medical applications is the lack of specific, publicly available, hyperspectral medical data. The work described in this paper was developed within the framew...

The use of hyperspectral imaging (HSI) in the medical field is an emerging approach to assist physicians in diagnostic or surgical guidance tasks. However, HSI data processing involves very high computational requirements due to the huge amount of information captured by the sensors. One of the stages with higher computational load is the K-Nearest...

Dimensionality reduction represents a critical preprocessing step in order to increase the efficiency and the performance of many hyperspectral imaging algorithms. However, dimensionality reduction algorithms, such as the Principal Component Analysis (PCA), suffer fromtheir computationally demanding nature, becoming advisable for their implementati...

The widening of the complexity-productivity gap witnessed in the last years is becoming unaffordable from the application development point of view.

Surgery for brain cancer is a major problem in neurosurgery. The diffuse infiltration into the surrounding normal brain by these tumors makes their accurate identification by the naked eye difficult. Since surgery is the common treatment for brain cancer, an accurate radical resection of the tumor leads to improved survival rates for patients. Howe...
