As the demand of employing various PC software on mobile embedded devices which have limited storages has been increased, software streaming services are needed. However it takes too much time to launch software on them because it is transferred through wireless networks. To address this problem, prefetch algorithms are needed. We examined 'Last successor (LS)' algorithm and PPM-based prefetch algorithm as prefetch algorithms for software streaming services. We present 'Probability-base Multi Successor (PMS)' algorithm which is contrived through analyzing evaluations of previous algorithms and characteristics of software streaming services. While LS has one successor per each block, PMS has N successors based on probability which is calculated by PPM-based prefetch algorithm. The hit rate of PMS is similar to that of PPM-base prefetch algorithm and the space overhead is similar to that of LS. We can get good efficiency at the point of memory usage when PMS is applied to software streaming services.

In recent years, embedded systems have been expanding their application domains from traditional applications (such as defense, robots, and artificial satellites) to portable devices which execute more complicated applications such as cellular phones, digital camcoders, PMPs, and MP3 players. So as to manage restricted hardware resources efficiently and to guarantee both temporal and logical correctness, every embedded system use a real-time operating system (RTOS). Only when the RTOS makes kernel services deterministic in time by specifying how long each service call will take to execute, application programers can write predictable applications. Moreover, so as for an RTOS to be deterministic, its scheduling and context switch overhead should also be predictable. In this paper, we present the complete generalized algorithm to determine the highest priority in the ready list with 22r levels of priorities in a constant time without additional memory overhead.

To transfer files between nodes on network based on Ethernet, file transfer protocol (FTP) on TCP/IP and trivial file transfer protocol (TFTP) on UDP/IP are mostly used. Due to the lack of resources (processor, memory and so on) in the embedded system where we generally use for simple works with small firmware like ones; many of the systems implement only UDP/IP for their network stacks. Thus, TFTP is greatly to be preferred. For examples, environmental sensor devices for sensor networks, Boot Loader for general embedded device and preboot execution environment (PXE) boot for PC provide the TFTP. The logic of TFTP is simple for file transmission but, there is Stop-And-Wait problem during the process which occurs long blocking time. In this paper, we propose an algorithm which called QuTFTP(Quick UDP Trivial File Transfer Protocol) to reduce the length of the blocking time and to be compatible with the legacy TFTP.

RT-eCos 3.0 is a micro-sized embedded real-time kernel that has been developed based on the open source eCos 3.0 to support the basic task model of the well-known distributed real-time object model, TMO(Time-Triggered Message-triggered Object). In this paper, the design and implementation techniques of the RMMC(Real-time Multicast & Memory replication Channel) that is a standard distributed IPC model of the TMO is described based on the RT-eCos 3.0. And the support technique of the global time for using the same time in a distributed environment using the RMMC is also described. The developed global time based RMMC supports highly abstracted distributed IPC environment in a wide area distributed computing environment with the RT-eCos 3.0.

Because worldwide interest in the health is increased, the real-time health monitoring system has been demanded to be more convenient non-contact and precise medical devices than conventional. Therefore we developed the blood pressure monitoring system using UWB(Ultra Wide Band) radio wave which contact to the human body through the radar and continuously collect a movement signal of the blood vessel. Then the collected data including pulse rate, systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure is processed in real time. The system monitors and controls through a program-based embedded LCD(Liquid Crystal Display) using Qt GUI(Graphic User Interface) to be displayed in real time. We implement the system as a embedded system because of reducing the size of the limited resources. Existing PC GUI design mode is used relatively large memory, therefore it requires more CPU(Central Processing Unit) capacity and processing time.

AES is frequently used as a symmetric cryptography algorithm for the Internet. Wireless embedded systems increasingly use more conventional wired network protocols. Hence, it is important to have low-cost implementations of AES for thor The basic architecture of AES unrolls oかy one full cipher round which uses 20 S-boxes together with the key scheduler and the algorithm repeatedly executes it. To reduce the implementation cost further, the folded architecture which uses only eight S-box units was studied in the recent years. In this paper, we will study a low-cost AES implementation for wireless communication technology based on the folded architecture. We first improve the folded architecture to avoid the sixteen bytes of additional state memory. Then, we implemented a single byte architecture where only one S-box unit is used for data encryption and key scheduling. It takes 352 clocks to finish a complete encryption. We found that the maximum clock frequency of its FPGA implementation reaches about 40 MHz. It can achieve about 13 Mbps which is enough for 3G wireless communication technology.

In this paper, a system which can compress and reconstruct the digital image was implemented using 2 dimensional DWT(Discrete Wavelet Transform). The proposed system consists of the FPGA board tocompress the image and the application software(S/W) to reconstruct it. First the FPGA receives the image from AID converter and compresses the image using wavelet transform. The compressed data is transferred into the PC using the PCI interface. The compressed image is reconstructed by an application S/W inside the PC. The image compressor can compress about 60 fields per second, in which the image format was NTSC YCbCr(4:2:2) and the image size was 640${\times}$240 pixels per field. The designed hardware mapped into one FPGA occupying 11,120 LAB (Logic Array Block) and 27,456 ESB(Embedded System Block) in APEX20KC EP20K1000B652-7. It globally uses 33MHz clock and the memory control part uses 100MHz.

Recently, IETF (Internet Engineering Task) working group has adopted CoAP (Constrained Application Protocol) as a standard IoT proctocol. CoAP is a specialized web transfer protocol for use with constrained nodes and constrained environment such as small memory and low power networks. In this paper, we design and implement a registration service with CoAP protocol based on RD(Resource Directory) to connect IoT nodes in mobile Internet environments. The resource directory between the mobile terminal and IoT nodes provides to discover the IoT nodes and get the context data. The mobile terminal has as the CoAP client and embedded IoT nodes includes as the CoAP server so that it can conveniently manage the constrained IoT nodes to get the context data and control devices in a mobile environments.

With increase of concern about the Ubiquitous application, the necessity of the computer system which is miniaturized is becoming larger. The ARM processor is showing a high share from embedded system market. In this paper, ideal method for RTD-1000 controller construction and development is described using ARM microcontroller. Existing RTD-1000 measures distance of disconnection or defect of sensing casket by measuring receiving reflected wave which was sent via copper wire inside the leaking sensing rod. Using this RTD-1000, leakage and breakage of water and oil pipe can be sensed and it reports damage results to the networks. But, existing RTD-1000 wastes hardware resources much and costs a great deal to installation. Also, it needs a cooling device because the heating problem, and has some problem of the secondary memory unit such as the hard disk. So, long tenn maintenance has some problems in the outside install place. In this paper, for the resolving the problem of RTD-1000, RTD-1000A embedded system based on ARM is proposed and simulated.
