Abstract: Commodity operating systems manage time in a best­ effort fashion, where clock synchronization is performed independently of both application demand and resource constraints. The vision of the RoseLine project is to develop a Quality of Time (QoT) stack for Linux that enables developers to write distributed applications that perform computation with a common sense of time.

Abstract: This project aims to enable cyber-physical systems that can be worn on the body in order to one day allow their users to touch, feel, and manipulate computationally simulated three-dimensional objects or digital data in physically realistic ways, using the whole hand. It will do this by precisely measuring touch and movement-induced displacements of the skin in the hand, and by reproducing these signals interactively, via new technologies to be developed in the project.
