The dynamics of 'systems building' : An analysis of process mutations
This thesis investigates systems building in architecture. As the systems approach is an organized process for problem solving, the understanding of structural and functional relationships is essential. As systems building can be interpreted in terms of dynamic processes, that are transient and at …

Real-Time and Embedded Systems Building Blocks for Cyber-Physical Systems
I also designed a hard real-time, fast, and lightweight acoustic event localization protocol, the Lightning Protocol, for wireless sensor networks. Basically, wireless sensors are deployed in a square grid pattern. Every sensor is colored i (i = 1, 2, 3, 4), so that for any point on the plane, the …
