센서 네트워크 노드는 각각 초저전력, 초소형, 저비용을 지향하는데 이러한 하드웨어 리소스를 사용하는 임베디드 OS가 TinyOS이다. TinyDB는 이러한 TinyOS 센서 네트워크로부터 정보를 추출하기 위한 쿼리 프로세싱 시스템이다. 이러한 TinyDB를 활용해서 X-Scale 기반의 임베디드 리눅스 환경에서 네트워크를 통한 Host서버와의 연계에 관한 설계 및 구현을 연구하였다.

In this paper, we present an architecture for the fault isolation by applying virtualization-based multi-stack technologies. We propose the simultaneous sharing and switching mechanism using virtualied serial communications. Each guest OS has its own virtual serial device. The distribution module provides communications between the guest OS's through the virtual serial devices and simultaneously detect the liveness of the guest OS. The suggested mechanism has been implemented in VirtualBox and shows satisfactory performance in transmission speed and data sharing capability with virtual RS232.

Due to the increasing amount of electronic control system in a vehicle, the automotive software is increasingly sophisticated and complicated. Therefore it may be faced a time critical problem caused by its complexity. In order to solve such problems, the automotive electronic system can use a real-time scheduling mechanism based on predictability. We first consider the standard specification of the AUTOSAR OS and uC/OS-II such as its scheduling theory with time determinism. In this paper, we propose the scheduling algorithm to be conformable to a conformance class of OSEK/VDX specification. Algorithm analysis shows that our scheduling algorithm outperforms an existing Trampoline OS by intuition.

정보 가전 분야에 있어서 급속한 기술 발전으로 인해 하루가 다르게 새로운 기능이 추가됨에 따라 임베디드 시스템 소프트웨어의 크기 및 복잡도 또한 함께 증가하고 있고 이를 개발하고 유지보수 하는데 있어서도 막대한 비용과 노력이 요구된다. 이를 해결하기 위한 방안으로 소프트웨어의 재사용성을 높이기 위한 노력이 이어지고 있다. 본 논문에서는 프로세스 방식 기반의 OS를 적용한 소프트웨어를 스레드 방식의 OS 기반의 소프트웨어로 전환하여 임베디드 시스템을 구현하였으며 소프트웨어 방법론으로는 스레드 방식의 OS 기반 소프트웨어에 수정된 DARTS(Design Approach to Real- Time Systems) 방법론을 적용하여 시스템을 구현하였다. 이 구현된 시스템에서 재사용성을 측정하여 표로 제시하며 그 측정 결과를 분석하였다. 그리고 스레드 방식의 OS 기반 소프트웨어에 수정된 DARTS 방법론을 적응하여 코드만 재사용이 아니라 설계방법도 재사용이 가능함을 CE 제품에 보이고자 한다.

With the development and general use of a variety of Android/iOS-based smart phones and smart pads, the existing e-learning contents need to be changed in such a way that they can be carried out on different smart device platforms. This paper shows what changes are needed for that aim, and, in particular, for the compatibility of different platforms by designing and implementing Android/iOS-based smart learning contents in the form of a hybrid app. This paper will hopefully help you consider what elements are required to develop smart-learning contents on a variety of platforms for mobile devices.

In this paper, we present a transformation method of source code from a POSIX (Portable Operating System Interface) based source code into an OSEK/VDX (Offene Systeme und deren Schnittstellen fur die Elektronik in Kraftfahrzeugen/Vehicle Distributed eXecutive) source code. As the electronic parts of automobile systems increase, the use of embedded software in automobile systems is also growing. Accordingly, many electronic systems are designed in automobile system with OSEK/VDX. Otherwise, one of the major problems of embedded software would be portability to other OS's. To enhance the portability and interoperability of embedded software, we propose a source code transformation method from POSIX to OSEK/VDX based on API (Application Programming Interface) translation method. Considering the characteristics of the OSEK/VDX which uses OIL (OSEK/VDX Implementation Language) standard, transformation process is performed with source code transformation and OIL code generation. For the validity of the proposed method, the transformation experiment is given using Micro-C OS II and OSEK/VDX with XC167CI micro-controller.

Wearable devices have become widespread. Fitness band is one of common wearable devices, providing useful functions. It helps users to monitor and collect their status such as heart rate and travel distance. Wearable devices, including fitness bands, are designed in small size and it ends up having small battery capacity. In that regard, it is necessary to expand the lifetime of wearable devices. Conventional power management scheme of wearable devices is based on DVFS Ondemand Governor and peripheral control by timeout event, such as turning off the LCD. In this paper, we propose a hybrid governor applying hardware supporting low power mode such as sleep mode to exploit the periodicity of fitness band task. In addition, we show hybrid governor outperforms in power consumption than conventional power management scheme of wearable devices based on Ondemand Governor through experiments.

Numerous platforms have been developed for ZigBee-based network embedded systems. Also, operating systems like TinyOS have been installed to facilitate efficient implementation of wireless sensor network applications which collect data, and/or execute commands. First of all, porting an operating system on a new platform may need invention of a substitute for a required but unsupported hardware component. This paper presents a multiplexed virtual system timer for a platform without a counter comparator which we have contrived to emulate by using an extra counter. Such porting also injects unexpected faults which cause a variety of painful failures. Unfortunately, TinyOS requires to handle a lot of asynchronous hardware interrupts which are hard to trace during debugging. Besides, simulators are not available for a new platform since the models of hardware on the platform are not usually developed, yet. We propose novel instrumentation techniques which can be used to effectively trace the bugs in such lack of debugging environment. These techniques are used to identify and fix a great deal of nasty issues in porting TinyOS 2.0 on MG2400 and MG2455 platforms made by RadioPulse Inc.

The Microprocessor Based Laboratory Systems(MBL) with the remote access functional could put basic science experimental facilities together by providing a modem platform that the students can utilize simultaneously to learn basic physics, chemistry and biology, Our educator target platform combines a highly integrated 8-bit embedded Atmega128 processor and real time embedded OS (operating system), allowing plenty of headroom for follow-on basic science projects for students. The proposed MBL-NUTOS (Microprocessor Based Laboratory-NUT/OS) employed in the lab are available with internet base simulation capabilities, on public servers and students personal PCs, enabling the students to study at home and increasing the opportunity of accessing for the science laboratory facility.
