  • Having been speedy development of the IT industry, devices such as set-top box and smart phone are used in the broad filed. Because Java has merits that are platform independency, security and mobility, that is important software platform to offer stable services in the small device. This needs JVM(Java Virtual Machine) to execute Java application in the small device. CVM(Classic Virtual Machine) which is the kind of JVM is designed for embedded device to have limited resources. In this paper, CVM which is defined by CDC has designed and implemented on the Real-Time Operating System, UbiFOS$^{TM}$.

  • Multiprocessor architectures and platforms, such as, a multiprocessor system on chip (MPSoC) recently introduced to extend the applicability of the Moore's law, depend upon concurrency and synchronization in both software and hardware to enhance design productivity and system performance. With the rapidly approaching billion transistors era, some of the main problem in deep sub-micron technologies characterized by gate lengths in the range of 60-90 nm will arise from non scalable wire delays, errors in signal integrity and non-synchronized communication. These problems may be addressed by the use of Network on Chip (NOC) architecture for future System-on-Chip (SoC). We have modeled a concurrent architecture for a customizable and scalable NOC in a system level modeling environment using MLDesigner (from MLD Inc.). Varying network loads under various traffic scenarios were applied to obtain realistic performance metrics. We provide the simulation results for latency as a function of the buffer size. We have abstracted the area results for NOC components from its FPGA implementation. Modeled NOC architecture supports three different levels of quality-of-service (QoS).

  • As increasing emphasis is being placed on user experience design, the RIA technology is widely deployed for user interface and software operation on embedded devices including cell phones and TVs. In particular, RIA-based IPTV enables creation of various interactive contents via sophisticated animation and various input devices. This paper proposes a service framework for emotional contents on broadcast and communication-converged IPTV systems. We design a programming interface extension for IPTV-based flash contents and develop a prototype of flash runtime with the extended programming support. Since the proposed runtime was carefully designed to fully utilize the built-in graphic acceleration hardware in media processor, it supports high resolution graphic animation in resource-constrained IPTV environments.

  • STSAT-2 is first satellite which is scheduled to launch by first Korea launcher. After launch Ground station Baseband Controller(GBC) for operating STSAT-2 is now developing. GBC control data flow path between satellite operation computers and ground station antennas. and GBC count number of received data packets among demodulated audio signals from three antennas and set data flow path to good-receiving antenna automatically. In GBC two uplink FSK modulators(1.2kbps, 9.6kbps) and six downlink FSK demodulators(9.6kbps, 38.4kbps) are embedded. STSAT-2 GBC hardware is more simpler than STSAT-1 GBC by using FPGA in which all digital logic implemented. Now test and debugging of GBC hardware and Software(FPGA Code and GBC Manager Program) is well progressing in SaTReC, KAIST. This paper introduce GBC structure, functions and test results.

  • Today, controller area network(CAN) is a field bus that is nowadays widespread in distributed embedded systems due to its electrical robustness, low price, and deterministic access delay. However, its use safety-critical applications has been controversial due to dependability limitation, such as those arising from its bus topology. Thus it is important to analyze the performance of the network in terms of load of data bus, maximum time delay, communication contention, and others during the design phase of the controller area network. In this paper, a simulation algorithm is introduced to evaluate the communication performance of the vehicle network and apply software base fault injection techniques. This can not only reduce any erratic implementation of the vehicle network but it also improves the reliability of the system.

  • Recent advancement in wireless communications and electronics has enabled the development of low power sensor network. Wireless sensor network are often used in remote monitoring control applications, health care, security and environmental monitoring. Wireless sensor networks are an emerging technology consisting of small, low-power, and low-cost devices that integrate limited computation, sensing, and radio communication capabilities. Sensor network platform for health care has been designed, fabricated and tested. This system consists of an embedded micro-controller, Radio Frequency (RF) transceiver, power management, I/O expansion, and serial communication (RS-232). The hardware platform uses Atmel ATmega128L 8-bit ultra low power RISC processor with 128KB flash memory as the program memory and 4KB SRAM as the data memory. The radio transceiver (Chipcon CC1000) operates in the ISM band at 433MHz or 916MHz with a maximum data rate of 76.8kbps. Also, the indoor radio range is approximately 20-30m. When many sensors have to communicate with the controller, standard communication interfaces such as Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI) or Integrated Circuit ($I^{2}C$) allow sharing a single communication bus. With its low power, the smallest and low cost design, the wireless sensor network system and wireless sensing electronics to collect health-related information of human vitality and main physiological parameters (ECG, Temperature, Perspiration, Blood Pressure and some more vitality parameters, etc.)

  • This paper presents the effect of temperature on the impedance-based damage monitoring of steel-bolt connections using wireless impedance sensor nodes. In order to achieve the objective, the following approaches are implemented. First, a temperature-compensated damage monitoring scheme that includes a temperature compensation model and damage detection method is described. The temperature compensation model is designed by analyzing the linear regressions between the temperatures and impedance signatures. The correlation coefficient of the impedance signatures is selected as the damage index to monitor the damage occurrence in the target structures. Second, a wireless impedance sensor node is described for the design of the hardware components and embedded software. Finally, the performance of the temperature-compensated impedance-based damage monitoring scheme is evaluated for detecting a loose bolt in the steel-bolt connections on a lab-scale steel girder under various temperatures.
