Framework Design for the Dynamic Reconfiguration of IoT-Enabled Embedded Systems and “On-the-Fly” Code Execution by Elmin Marevac, Esad Kadušić, Nataša Živić, Nevzudin Buzađija, Samir Lemeš

“…The study results demonstrate the VM’s ability to handle serialization and deserialization with minimal impact on system performance, even under high workloads, with serialization having a median time of 160 microseconds and deserialization having a median of 964 microseconds. Both processes were fast and resource-efficient under normal conditions, supporting real-time updates with occasional outliers, suggesting room for optimization and also highlighting the advantages of VM-based firmware update methods, which outperform traditional approaches like Serial and OTA (Over-the-Air, the ability to update or configure firmware, software, or devices via wireless connection) updates by achieving lower latency and greater consistency. …”
