A prototype for interprocess communication support, in hardware
In message based systems, interprocess communication (IPC) is a central facility. If the IPC part is ineffective in such a system, it will decrease the performance and response time. By implementing the IPC facility in hardware, the administration (scheduling, message handling, time-out supervising etc.), is reduced on the CPU , which leads to more time left for the application and a more deter...
متن کاملNon-Intrusive Hardware/Software Monitoring for Single- and Multiprocessor Real-Time Systems
Run-time observability in hardware and software is a requirement for testing and debugging any computer system. In real-time systems, and in particular distributed such, it is however difficult to obtain observability without altering the system’s timing behaviour. Monitoring techniques using passive hardware have been used to extract software execution traces non-instrusively to the system. Ho...
متن کاملEnergy Characterization of a RTOS Hardware Accelerator for SoCs
During the last decade several Real-Time Operating System (RTOS) hardware accelerators have been proposed. The accelerators perform operating system functionality traditionally implemented in software. While their effects on predictability and speedups have been studied, their impact on system energy consumption is still unknown. As a first step towards comparison of energy efficiency between H...
متن کاملReal Time Dynamic Simulation of Power System Using Multiple Microcomputers
Recent developments in the design and manufacture of microcomputers together with improved simulation techniques make it possible to achieve the speed and accuracy required for the dynamic simulation of power systems in real time. This paper presents some experimental results and outlines new ideas on hardware architecture, mathematical algorithms and software development for this purpose. The ...
متن کاملHardware-in-the-loop for hardware/software co-design of real-time embedded systems
Embedded systems are constantly getting more connected with other embedded systems, and off-the-shelf components are increasingly used in new embedded systems. Therefore there are vast opportunities in introducing the hardware-in-the-loop technique to the field of hardware/software co-design of embedded systems, so that the modeling of the implemented components are completely avoided for execu...
