System Dependability in Edge Computing Wearable Devices

Abstract

The use of smart sensors in wearable devices is thoroughly extended in recent times. The processing of large amount of sensed data is performed in these Cyberphysical System to avoid heavy wireless communication as well as high time and energy consumption. Therefore, very complex devices are being built which implies a concern in system dependability, especially when critical applications are the objective. In this paper, an enhanced methodology to assess in-field dependability of wearable devices is proposed. It includes a power consumption effect analysis of the mitigation and detection techniques. Proposed methodology has been applied on a real case study.
