Mwave/OS: A Predictable Real-time DSP Operating System
نویسندگان
چکیده
There is an industry trend in the development of single board computers based on DSPmicroprocessors. These microprocessors have specialized instruction sets that are optimized for DSP operations and architectures that are tuned for DSP program control. They also provide the structure necessary to support operating system functions. They are being used to supplement processing in PC and workstation environments with DSP functionality, such as telephony, audio and video processing, and fax and modem capabilities. This latter requirement to support multiple DSP functions concurrently has led to the expanded use of multi-tasking DSP operating systems.

Implementing a Predictable Real - Time Multiprocessor Kernel { The Spring Kernel
The Spring paradigm [6] advocates predictable [5] real-time computing. The purpose of predictable real-time computing is to allow the timing properties of both individual tasks and the overall system to be assessed. The construction of predictable systems can be viewed from the bottom up { predictable architectural features facilitate the construction of predictable OS software, which leads to ...
متن کاملAn Empirical Evaluation of OS Support for Real-time CORBA Object Request Brokers
There is increasing demand to extend Object Request Broker (ORB) middleware to support distributed applications with stringent real-time requirements. However, lack of proper OS support can yield substantial inefficiency and unpredictability for ORB middleware. This paper provides two contributions to the study of OS support for real-time ORBs. First, we empirically compare and evaluate the sui...
متن کاملAn Empirical Evaluation of OS Endsystem Support for Real-time CORBA Object Request Brokers
There is increasing demand to extend Object Request Broker (ORB) middleware to support applications with stringent quality of service (QoS) requirements. In particular, distributed multimedia applications require efficient and predictable performance from the middleware layer and below to deliver necessary end-to-end QoS. Although ORB middleware, such as CORBA, COM+, and Java RMI, offers transp...
متن کاملComposition Kernel: A Software Solution for Constructing a Multi-OS Embedded System
Modern high-end embedded systems require both predictable real-time scheduling and high-level abstraction interface to their OS kernels. Since these features are difficult to be balanced by a single OS, some methods that accommodate multiple different versions of OS kernels, typically real-time OS and general purpose OS, into a single device have been proposed. The hybrid kernel, one of those m...
متن کاملWCET Analysis of the μC/OS-II Real-Time Kernel∗
Worst-case execution time (WCET) analysis is one of the major tasks in timing validation of hard real-time systems. In complex systems with real-time operating systems (RTOS), the timing properties of the system are decided by both the applications and the RTOS. Traditionally, WCET analysis mainly deals with application programs, while it is crucial to know whether the RTOS also behaves in a ti...
