Abstract
Over the last two decades, microcontrollers have replaced conventional electronics in the control of most mechatronic devices in use today. Recently, we have seen the beginning of a new technological movement that aims towards using the Internet for integrating embedded devices to form pervasive computing infrastructures. Smart Spaces, tele-control and Business-To-Machine (B2M) eCommerce are among the emerging technologies currently under research and development.In a collaborative project with industry and the Herzberg Institute of Astrophysics, we have investigated tools and techniques that aid the migration of existing embedded control software to such network-centric environments. The goal is to be able to inexpensively leverage existing products to modern applications rather than having to re-implement highly specialized embedded programs.This paper reports on our experiences with a case study on migrating a real-world micro-controller application to a networked infrastructure. Based on our experiences, we propose a method that would help practitioners tackle similar reengineering projects.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
