  • Recently, the requirements of the embedded software are getting diverse as the diversity of embedded software application fields increases. The systematic development methods are issued to deal with the dependency between hardware and software. However, the existing development methods have not considered the software's close connection to hardware and the high-level reusability for common requirements of several similar domains. In this paper, we propose a design method of development process model of product lines to support an efficient development method for embedded software. For this, we firstly suggest a domain scoping method and an IDEF0(Integration DEFinition)-based business model for extracting the efficient requirements. Next, we present a component deriving method based on the service architecture and an architecture design method after considering the hardware dependency. And we explain the artifacts of MSDFS(Multi Sensor Data Fusion System) at each design step in order to show how the proposed model can be applied to the embedded software development.

  • According to increasing requirements in embedded systems. embedded software has been more complicated then before. a optimum software is difficult in embedded system. software developer make a difficult optimum software. this paper suggests a software profiling tool with which a software developer can easily profiling the embedded system software in cross-development environments. the suggested tool is designed based on host/target architecture. this tool insert program source for make profiling log to target program. a target program executed in target system. a target system communicate profiling log to host system. this tool in host system analyze profiling log data. and make a XML of profiling log and a profiling report. a profiling report is graphic viewer based GUI. a target system in this tool needs a few computing power. and XSLT can conversion of profile log XML to other format data. and suggested tool based on eclipse plug-in, therefore developer can use operates in eclipse.

  • The semiconductor industry develops and maintains software embedded in computer-controlled tools and facilities, to process and manufacture high-tech products. Upgrading embedded softwares for semiconductor processing robots and machinery is one of the basic activities that must be performed in order to maintain product quality and integrity. Maintenance and enhancement of embedded software consume a major portion of the total life cycle cost of a system. However, the area has been given little attention in the literature. 502 maintenance and enhancement cases, related to embedded softwares in wafer processing machines, were selected at random for analysis. Practical implications are also discussed.

  • 늘어나는 사용자의 요구를 충족시키고, 차별화된 서비스를 제공하기 위해 산업 전반에 걸쳐 정보기술의 적용이 확대됨에 따라 임베디드 소프트웨어 제품의 활용이 급격히 증가되고 있다. 이에 따라 각 기업에서는 기존 자사 제품의 생산에서 시장 적시성과 고품질을 달성하기 위한 체계적인 임베디드 소프트웨어 개발에 대한 요구가 점차 증가하고 있으나 그에 따른 기술 및 인력의 부족으로 많은 어려움을 겪고 있는 실정이다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 문제 해결에 일조하기 위해 한국전자통신연구원에서 최근에 개발한 제품계열기반의 임베디드 시스템 개발 방법론의 개념, 프로세스 등을 제시하고자 한다.

  • Embedded system is tightly coupled with heterogeneous layers such as application, as kernel, device driver, HAL and hardware. Embedded system is customized for the specific purpose and hardware. In addition, the product cycle is so fast that software and hardware, which are developed by several vendors, are integrated together under unstable status. Therefore, there are lots of possibilities of faults in all layers. Because embedded software developers test their codes integrated with faulty layers, they cannot confirm 'whether testing of every aspects was completed, their code was failed, or integrated software/hardware has some problems'. In this paper, we propose an embedded software interface test method and a test tool called Justitia for detecting faults and tracing causes in the interface among heterogeneous layers. The proposed technique is an automated method which improves debugging upto professional testing using an emulator for helping developer.

  • Recently, train control system is adopting computer system replacing mechanical system and its software is taking more responsibility than ever. Train control system software is a safety-critical embedded software with realtime and high reliability requirements. In this paper, we propose a safety assessment method for the train control system software. We review characteristics of train control system software and analyze related international software safety standards to derive requirements for safety assessment. Testing tools used for embedded software are surveyed to find a feasible safety assessment architecture. The proposed safety assessment method is to use safety activity results generated during development processes and feed them to the runtime embedded software testing tool.

  • It is still not sufficient for the famous embedded software test methods such as Finite State Machine, Software Cost Reduction and model coverage based test case generation, to pinpoint where bugs hang around and to figure out what makes the bugs. A new approach to ameliorate the drawbacks is proposed in this paper. In the approach, we define a generic model for embedded software. And we also define failure mechanism for embedded software, and a way to generate test cases based on it.

  • Generally, due to the strong coherence between embedded software and hardware or peripheral software, embedded software is tested by using black-box test based on user scenario for the whole system. This paper suggests the method to coordinate between testing and debugging under consideration for difficulties on solving out the defects detected from black-box test. First of all, from test result analysis, it builds up the debugging strategies enable to trace the locations of the defect's causes. And along with the strategies, it implements the generator of test scripts to be performed on the emulator environment. Through these steps, it can coordinate embedded software testing and debugging activities.
