Recent developments in internet technologies has enabled widespread growth of embedded systems like Arduino, Raspberry Pi and other smart home systems. A research in the industrial sector on the utilization of the board has been made. The development needs of the embedded board in a reagent bottle case system has been highlighted. Current reagent Management System has to hold and manage the reagent itself is mostly to save the program using handwritten or machine. In addition, there is a risk to the system during the vulnerable zone administrator to manage the situation of the reagent bottle case can lead to a massive fire. In this paper, reagent bottle case RFID readers and data in real-time is monitored by attaching a sensor management through the database and sends a warning message to the mobile device of the administrator in real time during hazardous situations in the reagent bottle case. This is improve the reliability and efficiency of reagent bottle case.

This paper proposes an integrated scheduling mechanism for embedded system with real-time web server to meet the characteristics of real time task. The proposed scheduling mechanism may solve the so-called priority inversion problem in scheduling between urgent web requests and tasks with low priorities. The priority inversion problem happens because of operating two independent schedulers, web scheduler and operating system scheduler in a system without considering the requirements of each other. In the proposed mechanism, two schedulers are integrated in an operating system and the integrated scheduler schedules tasks for urgent web requests with real time characteristics and other application tasks together. Since all tasks are scheduled by one unified scheduler that knows the characteristics of tasks, the tasks are scheduled with their absolute priorities and thus the priority inversion problem can be eliminated. The performance is measured on a prototype embedded system with the proposed algorithm.

Recently, demands of information devices are increasing as we can find so many information devices around us such as smartphone, MID(Mobile Internet Device), Tablet. These characteristics of information devices services should support soft real-time based time guaranteed multimedia services and control internet appliances. In this situation, soft real-time supported system should be developed to consider as a total aspect of hardware, kernel, middleware, application. But this paper will describe soft real-time supporting and evaluation methods for information device as an aspect of only kernel.

Many embedded real - lime systems have adopted processors supported with dynamic voltage scal-ing(DVS) recently. Power is one of the important metrics for Optimization in the design and operation of embedded real-time systems. We can save considerable energy by using slowdown of processor sup-ported with DVS. In this paper, we improved the previous algorithm at a point of view of time complexity to calculate task slowdown factors for an efficient energy consumption in embedded real-time systems with task synchronization. We grasped the properties of the previous algorithm having $O(n^{2})$ time complexity through mathematical analysis and s simulation. Using its properties we proposed the improved algorithms with O(nlogn) and O(n) time complexity which have the same performance as the previous algorithm has.

This paper proposes the real time lip reading method in the embedded environment. The embedded environment has the limited sources to use compared to existing PC environment, so it is hard to drive the lip reading system with existing PC environment in the embedded environment in real time. To solve the problem, this paper suggests detection methods of lip region, feature extraction of lips, and awareness methods of phonetic words suitable to the embedded environment. First, it detects the face region by using face color information to find out the accurate lip region and then detects the exact lip region by finding the position of both eyes from the detected face region and using the geometric relations. To detect strong features of lighting variables by the changing surroundings, histogram matching, lip folding, and RASTA filter were applied, and the properties extracted by using the principal component analysis(PCA) were used for recognition. The result of the test has shown the processing speed between 1.15 and 2.35 sec. according to vocalizations in the embedded environment of CPU 806Mhz, RAM 128MB specifications and obtained 77% of recognition as 139 among 180 words were recognized.

The complicated embedded system for multi-tasking requires RTOS(real-time operating system). It uses the optimal OS and processor to each embedded system on the heterogeneous development environment. This paper is proposed to use UML profile of OS API and Processor Configuration, instead of cross-compiling for developing the heterogeneous embedded system. This reduces the development time and cost through generating the automatic source code with the profile information of each embedded system. We generate and port the code after modeling the two heterogeneous real time operating systems (brickOS and uC/OS-II) and the processors (Hitachi H8 and Intel PXA255) with our proposed profile of the heterogeneous embedded system.

Embedded operation system is core software technology which will be able to implement the ubiquitous environment. Also, it is basic technology which has a great ripple effect. Therefore, it is advanced and greatly changed for recent several years. Especially, a lot of studies have been done on real-time supporting technology relating to embedded operating system. In this paper, I analyze the characteristics of real-time embedded system and the trend of scheduling technique in order to support them. As a result, I suggest selection technique for selecting scheduling algorithm through considering the characteristics of embedded system.

Variable message signs (VMS) have the different sizes and a specific type according to the city scene and it has to be displayed by different message on the display panel in real-time. And VMS manufacturers must produce the different products in order to give a customized product to each order. In addition that, they should test and check the correct operation to each VMS product using the different message frame. That is very time and workers consuming and VMS emulator with an automatic variable message generator system is necessary. Also, the automatic message generator system is needed to real-time scheduling in order to display the message on the VMS panel like real world. In this paper, we design and implement the VMS emulator embedded the automatic message frame generator system with real-time scheduling which can set several parameters easily on the windows dialog.

In this paper, we propose a design and development method of an elevator simulator that can be used as an embedded application layer software learning tool and a teaching and learning method using it. The simulator provides students with an environment to implement the operating principle and control method of the elevator system in the application layer excluding the issues of hardware and embedded OS layer. This allows students to have a reactive and real-time embedded application development experience. In addition, we present a four-week embedded application software training course with hands-on exercises that add step-by-step functionality using a simulator. As a result of training for actual students, we obtained 83.3 points of learning achievement score and proved that the curriculum has a significant effect on embedded application learning.

The telematics device, which is a typical embedded system on the transportation or vehicle, requires the embedded spatial DBMS based on RTOS (Real Time Operating System) for processing the huge spatial data in real time. This spatial DBMS can be developed very easily by SQL3 functions of the ORDBMS such as UDT (user-defined type) and UDF (user-defined function). However, developing index suitable for the embedded spatial DBMS is very difficult. This is due to the fact that there is no built-in SQL3 functions to construct spatial indexes. In this study, we compare and analyze both Generalized Search Tree and Relational Indexing methods which are suggested as common ways of developing User-Defined Indexes nowadays. Two implementations of R-Tree based on each method were done and region query performance test results were evaluated for suggesting a suitable indexing method of an embedded spatial DBMS, especially for telematics devices.
