The emerging NVMe-based multi-queue SSDs provides a high bandwidth by parallel I/O, i.e., each core performs I/O through its dedicated queue in parallel with other cores. To provide a bandwidth share for each application with I/O, a fair-share scheduler that provides a bandwidth share to each core is required. In this study, we proposed a multi-core scalable fair-queuing algorithm for multi-queue SSDs. The algorithm adopts randomization to minimize the inter-core synchronization overheads and provides a weight-proportional bandwidth share to each core. The results of our experiments indicated that the proposed algorithm gives accurate bandwidth partitioning and outperforms the existing FlashFQ scheduler, regardless of the number of cores for a Linux kernel with block-mq.

General purpose operating systems are Increasingly being used for serving time-sensitive applications. These applications require soft real-time characteristics from the kernel and from other system-level services. In this paper, we explore various operating systems techniques needed to support time-sensitive applications and describe the design of MUSMA(Multi-level Scheduler for Multimedia Application). MUSMA is a framework that combination of user-level top scheduler and kernel-level bottom scheduler. We develope MUSMA in linux environment and it's performance is evaluated. Experiment result shows that it is possible to satisfy the constraints of multimedia in a general purpose operating system without significantly compromising the performance of non-realtime applications.

In the present study, we assessed the parallel computing performance of Agisoft Metashape for orthomosaic generation, which can implement aerial triangulation, generate a three-dimensional point cloud, and make an orthomosaic based on SfM (Structure from Motion) technology. Due to the nature of SfM, most of the time is spent on Align photos, which runs as a relative orientation, and Build dense cloud, which generates a three-dimensional point cloud. Metashape can parallelize the two processes by using multi-cores of CPU (Central Processing Unit) and GPU (Graphics Processing Unit). An orthomosaic was created from large UAV (Unmanned Aerial Vehicle) images by six conditions combined by three parallel methods (CPU only, GPU only, and CPU + GPU) and two operating systems (Windows and Linux). To assess the consistency of the results of the conditions, RMSE (Root Mean Square Error) of aerial triangulation was measured using ground control points which were automatically detected on the images without human intervention. The results of orthomosaic generation from 521 UAV images of 42.2 million pixels showed that the combination of CPU and GPU showed the best performance using the present system, and Linux showed better performance than Windows in all conditions. However, the RMSE values of aerial triangulation revealed a slight difference within an error range among the combinations. Therefore, Metashape seems to leave things to be desired so that the consistency is obtained regardless of parallel methods and operating systems.

Home-Network is an integrated network of the PC and all electric home appliances in the home so that they can communicate with each other. In the 21th century, here are various technology for Home Network environment such as HomePNA, IEEE 1394, Ethernet Lan and Bluetooth. For Home Network construction, generally, the standard series interface 'RS232' is used to make communication possible between electric home appliances. However Home network using RS232 has a problem. That is, All machines have to be connected to each other with RS232 using Point-to-Point mode. In this case, the system becomes complicated because we have to use circuits as much as there are machines and increased expenses. To improve this problem, In this thesis, designed home network using RS422 Multi-drop mode serial communication and controled it with embedded linux system. And connected RS422 with motors and sensors using PIC to make the home network virtual environment.

The underwater multi-agent technology has many potential for the various activities related to ocean development/conservation in the near future. For example, in such fields as water pollution investigation, aquaculture control, or coral reef research, we feel a growing need for a system that realizes underwater continuous monitoring in the wide rang e. In this case, the target monitoring area will be sliced planar hierarchically toward the depth as monitoring layers, and many AUVs arranged on each layer track the given trajectory and gather various environmental information continuously, with communicating each other in the layer or with other layers. To realize those systems we need to develop AUV multi-agent technologies. So we are now building basic systems for basin experiment for the development of AUV multi-agent behavior. We must experience many situations and problems to be solved for the development of its elemental technologies by using real systems as well as our computer simulations. In this paper we introduce our concept of the experiment in the near future and the hardware/software design of our two types of handy AUVs and ultrasound ranging/communication system for that experiment. One AUV is designed using a 17inches-diameter glass sphere with DOS/V and RT-Linux based subsystems, which is intended to use not only in the basin but also in the calm real sea. The other AUV is designed for the basin experiment using a 7inches-diameter acrylic sphere with low-cost embedded system with SH-2 based subsystems. The basin experiment to verify the basic AUV facilities and ultrasound ranging for position detection was carried out.

There are many file systems in various operating systems. Those are usually designed for server environments, where the common cases are usually 'multiple active users', 'great many small files' And they assume a big main memory to be used as buffer cache. So the existing file systems are not suitable for resource hungry embedded systems that process multimedia data streams. In this study, we designed and implemented a new file system which efficiently stores and retrieves multimedia data steams. The proposed file system has a very simple disk layout, which guarantees a quick disk initialization and file system recovery. And we introduced a new indexing-scheme, called the time-based indexing scheme, with the file system. With the indexing scheme, the file system maintains the relation between time and the location for all the multimedia streams. The scheme is useful in searching and playing the compressed multimedia streams by locating exact frame position with given time, resulting in reduction of CPU processing and power consumption. The proposed file system and its APIs utilizing the time-based indexing schemes were implemented firstly on a Linux environment, though it is operating system independent. In the performance evaluation on a real DVR system, which measured the execution time of multi-threaded reading and writing, we found the proposed file system is maximum 38.7% faster than EXT2 file system.

Recent advancements in network infrastructures provide increased opportunities to support data delivery over multiple paths. Compared with multi-homing scenario, overlay network is regarded as an effective way to construct multiple paths between end devices without any change on the underlying network. Exploiting multipath characteristics has been explored for TCP with multi-homing device, but the corresponding exploration with overlay network has not been studied in detail yet. Motivated by improving quality of experience (QoE) for reliable data delivery, we propose a multipath message transport protocol based on application level relay (MPMTP-AR). MPMTP-AR proposes mechanisms and algorithms to support basic operations of multipath transmission. Dynamic feedback provides a foundation to distribute reasonable load to each path. Common source decrease (CSD) takes the load weight of the path with congestion into consideration to adjust congestion window. MPMTP-AR uses two-level sending buffer to ensure independence between paths and utilizes two-level receiving buffer to improve queuing performance. Finally, the MPMTP-AR is implemented on the Linux platform and evaluated by comprehensive experiments.

Recently, various threat and security incident are occurred for unspecified individuals, and this problem increases as the rapid of information sharing through Internet. The using of Information Security System such as IDS, Firewall, VPN etc. makes this problem minimal. However, professional knowledge or skill is needed in that case, normal user can't operate the Information Security System. This paper designs and implements File Access Control Module(FACM) to use easily for normal user against malicious threats and attacks. The FACM can exclude from malicious threats and attacks based on operation system rather than detection of threats and attacks. The FACM is working not only Windows System but also Linux System, and the FACM has effect on access control, integrity and non-repudiation for a file with an access control over files on the each OS that are used by multi-user.

Among the failure cases of the existing navigation aids, the SW and operating system errors of the RTU, the embedded computer for navigation aids, account for about 10%. The causes of SW errors have an infinite number of cases, and it is impossible to correct them all. In this paper, we proposed a paravirtualized multi-OS Docker container utilization technique as a stable operation technique for smart navigational aids, which have recently increased the amount of computation and complexity of SW services that need to be managed. It is proposed to divide containers according to service type, expected load, and error frequency and load the service.
