Chapter 1 Introduction
Industry 4.0 strategy plans to extend embedded systems with information and communication technologies (ICT) based on automation, resulting in massively heterogeneous distributed embedded systems to complex parallel applications. An important safety issue needs to be addressed in embedded systems. According to the latest global estimates, taking into account the “Industry 4.0” strategic plan and the entire safety industry, the annual cost of workplace accidents amounts to 476 billion Euros. It is critical to ensure that embedded applications operate safely without causing personal injury and health damage. As advanced heterogeneous distributed systems, cyber-physical systems (CPS) further ...
