A Component Framework for Consumer Electronics Middleware
نویسندگان
چکیده
Developers of Consumer Electronics (CE) devices face the problem of the ever increasing amount of software that needs to be developed. At the same time the time to market of their products needs to decrease. In other domains Component Based software development aids in solving the resulting problems. However, existing component frameworks fail to meet some of the requirements specific for the CE domain. In order to improve this situation a component-based framework has been developed. In this chapter we describe this framework and motivate the architectural choices. These choices are influenced by the requirements on the framework. Some of these requirements are specific for the CE domain, others are more general.

Universal home network middleware guaranteeing seamless interoperability among the heterogeneous home network middleware
Users will be able to access ubiquitously present appliances anywhere and anytime through home network. For this, we need middleware that provides a highlevel abstraction, self-configuration, and guarantees the interoperability among middleware. However, most home network middleware does not ensure interoperability with different middleware. This paper presents the UHNM architecture, which guar...
متن کاملDesign and implementation of home network systems using UPnP middleware for networked appliances
This paper describes the design and implementation of a home network system using UPnP middleware and an embedded interface device. The developed home network system comprises a home server program, appliance emulators; (e.g., for l'K refrigerator, and airconditioner), and an embedded interface device for networked home appliances.
متن کاملAn Integrated Platform for Digital Consumer Electronics
This paper describes the architecture of an integrated platform developed for improving the development efficiency of system LSIs built into digital consumer electronics equipment such as flat-panel TVs and optical disc recorders. The reason for developing an integrated platform is to improve the development efficiency of system LSIs that serve the principal functions of the said equipment. The...

Full interoperability of networked devices in the home has been kind of an elusive concept for quite some years. Amigo, an Integrated Project within the EU 6-th framework program, tries to make home networking a reality by addressing two key issues: First, it brings together many major players in the domestic appliances, communications, consumer electronics and computer industry to develop a co...
متن کاملMessage-Passing Concurrency for Scalable, Stateful, Reconfigurable Middleware
Message-passing concurrency (MPC) is increasingly being used to build systems software that scales well on multi-core hardware. Functional programming implementations of MPC, such as Erlang, have also leveraged their stateless nature to build middleware that is not just scalable, but also dynamically reconfigurable. However, many middleware platforms lend themselves more naturally to a stateful...
