Handling Dynamism in Embedded System Design by Application Scenarios

چکیده
In the past years, real-time embedded systems became more and more complex. From the user perspective, these systems have stringent requirements regarding size, performance and power consumption, and due to business competition, their time-to-market is a crucial factor. Therefore, much work has been done in developing design methodologies for embedded systems to cope with these tight requirements. In this work, we present a basic methodology based on the concept of application scenarios for handling in real-time embedded systems design the dynamism that appears within the applications. As a case study, we apply this methodology for reducing the energy consumption on a dynamic voltage aware processor.

متن کاملSystem scenarios-based architecture level exploration of SDR application using a network-on-chip simulation framework
Software-defined radio (SDR) terminals are critical to enable concrete and consecutive inter-working between fourth generation wireless access systems or communication modes. Next generation of SDR terminals will have heavy hardware requirements and the switching between the different resource utilization modes will introduce dynamism in respect to timing and size of resource requests. This stu...
متن کاملResource-efficient routing and scheduling of time-constrained streaming communication on networks-on-chip
Network-on-chip-based multiprocessor systems-onchip are considered as future embedded systems platforms. One of the steps in mapping an application onto such a parallel platform involves scheduling the communication on the network-onchip. This paper presents different scheduling strategies that minimize resource usage by exploiting all scheduling freedom offered by networks-on-chip. It also int...
متن کاملSystematic Design Principles for Cost-Effective Hard Constraint Management in Dynamic Nonlinear Systems
Modern cost-conscious dynamic systems incorporate knobs that allow run-time trade-offs between system metrics of interest. In these systems regular knob tuning to minimize costs while satisfying hard system constraints is an important aspect. Knob tuning is a combinatorial constrained nonlinear dynamic optimization problem with uncertainties and time-linkage. Hiding uncertainties under worst-ca...
متن کاملScenario Based Design Space Exploration
Nowadays, embedded systems need to support multiple applications simultaneously. It is not enough anymore to simply use a mobile phone to call somebody, but users also want to be able to simultaneously do other things, like listen to mp3’s or watch videos. This calls for a change in embedded system design which already takes the interaction between the multiple applications into account in the ...
