Icess 2005: Second International Conference on Embedded Software and Systems: December 16-18, 2005: Xi'an, China

With the advent of VLSI system level integration and system-on-chip, the center of gravity of the computer industry is now moving from personal computing into embedded computing. Embedded software and systems are increasingly becoming a key technological component of all kinds of complex technical systems, ranging from vehicles, telephones, aircraft, toys, security systems, to medical diagnostics, weapons, pacemakers, climate control systems, and on. The ICESS 2005 proceedings permits researchers, developers, and providers from academia and industry to address the challenges and discuss their new ideas, research results, applications, and experience. ICESS aims to improve international communication and cooperation and to promote embedded software and system industrialization and wide applications on all aspects of embedded software and systems.IEEE Computer Society Staff is the author of 'Icess 2005: Second International Conference on Embedded Software and Systems: December 16-18, 2005: Xi'an, China' with ISBN 9780769525129 and ISBN 0769525121.
