Abstract

In this paper the RUNES approach to the development of software for networked embedded systems is described. There is a need for a program platform with abstractions that are able to span the full range of heterogeneous embedded systems, and which also offers consistent mechanisms with which to configure, deploy, and dynamically reconfigure networked embedded systems software. This paper discusses the need of such a programming platform. The work is being carried out in the context of the RUNES project (reconfigurable, ubiquitous, and networked embedded systems) which has the general goal of developing an architecture for networked embedded systems that encompasses dedicated radio layers, networks
