Embedded Software and Systems Vol. 3605 ; 1st International Conference, ICESS 2004, Hangzhou, China, December 9-10, 2004, Revised Selected Papers
Welcome to the post proceedings of the First International Conference on Embedded Software and Systems (ICESS 2004), which was held in Hangzhou, P. R. China, 9–10 December 2004. Embedded Software and Systems technology is of increasing importance for a wide range of industrial areas, such as aerospace, automotive, telecommunication, and manufacturing automation. Embedded technology is playing an increasingly dominant role in modern society. This is a natural outcome of amazingly fast developments in the embedded field. The ICESS 2004 conference brought together researchers and developers from academia, industry, and government to advance the science, engineering, and technology in embedded software and systems development, and provided them with a forum to present and exchange their ideas, results, work in progress, and experience in all areas of embedded systems research and development. The ICESS 2004 conference attracted much more interest than expected.
Embedded Java Security : Security for Mobile Devices
Whereas Java brings functionality and versatility to the world of mobile devices, at the same time it also introduces new security threats. The rapid growth of the number of mobile devices that support Java makes this a pressing issue. Embedded Java Security carefully examines the security aspects of Java and offers a security evaluation for the Java platform. After explaining background material on the architecture of embedded platforms and relating to its role in security, the book deconstructs the security model into its main components: It explains each component and relates it to the aim of securing the applications and the device. Toward this end, several implementations of the Java platform are examined and tested to relate the model to its actual implementation on devices. The security holes found are further used to clarify security issues and point out common errors. Finally, the book provides an evaluation of embedded Java security that includes security models and security tests performed on real-life implementations.

Dr.phone
Dr phone is a software system that helps in talking with the doctor automatically and easily without the need to go to the doctor's clinic to diagnose the patient's condition. our application presents an available platform to make a video call between the doctor and the patient according to the patient’s needs. The system accepts the patient’s request after choosing an available doctor andthen waits for the doctor to accept his request, if there is no doctor available, the system performs an AI chatbot to the patient's need to give him the appropriate diagnosis. when the call finished the doctor represents medical record including the medicine and the analytics and record the next appointment if it’s needed then send them to the patient's email, the patient also can see the nearest pharmacies or labs according to his location, and finally the patient rates the doctor after the call is finished then payment by his available wallet.
