Book Analysis and Synthesis of Distributed Real Time Embedded Systems

Download or read book Analysis and Synthesis of Distributed Real Time Embedded Systems written by Paul Pop and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-03-19 with total page 333 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Embedded computer systems are now everywhere: from alarm clocks to PDAs, from mobile phones to cars, almost all the devices we use are controlled by embedded computers. An important class of embedded computer systems is that of hard real-time systems, which have to fulfill strict timing requirements. As real-time systems become more complex, they are often implemented using distributed heterogeneous architectures. Analysis and Synthesis of Distributed Real-Time Embedded Systems addresses the design of real-time applications implemented using distributed heterogeneous architectures. The systems are heterogeneous not only in terms of hardware components, but also in terms of communication protocols and scheduling policies. Regarding this last aspect, time-driven and event-driven systems, as well as a combination of the two, are considered. Such systems are used in many application areas like automotive electronics, real-time multimedia, avionics, medical equipment, and factory systems. The proposed analysis and synthesis techniques derive optimized implementations that fulfill the imposed design constraints. An important part of the implementation process is the synthesis of the communication infrastructure, which has a significant impact on the overall system performance and cost. Analysis and Synthesis of Distributed Real-Time Embedded Systems considers the mapping and scheduling tasks within an incremental design process. To reduce the time-to-market of products, the design of real-time systems seldom starts from scratch. Typically, designers start from an already existing system, running certain applications, and the design problem is to implement new functionality on top of this system. Supporting such an incremental design process provides a high degree of flexibility, and can result in important reductions of design costs. STRONGAnalysis and Synthesis of Distributed Real-Time Embedded Systems will be of interest to advanced undergraduates, graduate students, researchers and designers involved in the field of embedded systems.

This book was released on 2017-01-27 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle.

Two classes of systems are considered: positive linear systems and positive Takagi-Sugeno (T-S) fuzzy systems. For positive linear systems, the controller, state-bounding observer and filter design problems are considered. Due to the special structures and unique features of positive systems, some previous approach used for general systems, such as similarity transformation, are no longer applicable to positive systems. First, the stabilization problem for positive linear systems is studied. In detail, analytical formulae to compute the exact values of ℓ1-induced and L1-induced norms are presented. Moreover, it is shown how the necessary and sufficient conditions can be constructed such that the closed-loop system is stable and satisfies a prescribed L1-induced performance. For single-input multiple-output (SIMO) positive systems, analytical solutions are established to show how the optimal ℓ1-induced and L1-induced controllers are designed. In addition, the L1-induced sparse state-feedback controller is investigated for continuous-time interval positive systems. Then, to estimate the state of positive systems at all times, the problem of positive state-bounding observers for interval positive systems is studied under the L1-induced performance. Necessary and sufficient conditions are presented to design a pair of state-bounding positive observers. Finally, the positive filtering problem is addressed for positive systems under the L1-induced performance. A pair of positive filters with error-bounding feature is designed to estimate the output of positive systems and the obtained results are expressed in terms of linear programming problems. For positive T-S fuzzy systems, the controller and filter design problems are investigated under the ℓ1-induced performance. First, novel performance characterization of positive fuzzy systems is established. Sufficient conditions are further established for the existence of state-feedback controller. An iterative convex optimization algorithm is developed to solve the design conditions. Furthermore, a pair of error-bounding positive filters are constructed to estimate the output of positive T-S fuzzy systems. A new performance characterization is first established to guarantee the asymptotic stability of the filtering error system with the ℓ1-induced performance. Then, sufficient conditions expressed by linear programming problems are derived to design the required filters. DOI: 10.5353/th_b5312339 Subjects: Positive systems

Download or read book Sequential Logic written by Joseph Cavanagh and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2018-10-03 with total page 912 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Until now, there was no single resource for actual digital system design. Using both basic and advanced concepts, Sequential Logic: Analysis and Synthesis offers a thorough exposition of the analysis and synthesis of both synchronous and asynchronous sequential machines. With 25 years of experience in designing computing equipment, the author stresses the practical design of state machines. He clearly delineates each step of the structured and rigorous design principles that can be applied to practical applications. The book begins by reviewing the analysis of combinatorial logic and Boolean algebra, and goes on to define sequential machines and discuss traditional and alternative methods for synthesizing synchronous sequential machines. The final chapters deal with asynchronous sequential machines and pulse-mode asynchronous sequential machines. Because this volume is technology-independent, these techniques can be used in a variety of fields, such as electrical and computer engineering as well as nanotechnology. By presenting each method in detail, expounding on several corresponding examples, and providing over 500 useful figures, Sequential Logic is an excellent tutorial on analysis and synthesis procedures.

Book Analysis and Synthesis of Concurrent Sequential Programs

Download or read book Analysis and Synthesis of Concurrent Sequential Programs written by Stanford University. Stanford Electronics Laboratories and published by . This book was released on 1970 with total page 106 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The paper presents analysis and synthesis procedures for a class of sequential programs. The procedures aid in the design of programs for parallel computer systems. In particular, the interactions of a given program with other programs or circuits in a system can be described precisely. The basis for the work is a model for parallel computer systems in which the operation of each component is described by a flow table and the components interact by changing values on interconnecting lines. The details of the model are discussed in another paper. The analysis procedure produces a flow table description of a program. In program synthesis, a flow table description is converted to a sequential program. Using flow table design procedures, a control program for the two-program mutual exclusion problem is produced.

Book Co Synthesis of Hardware and Software for Digital Embedded Systems

Download or read book Co Synthesis of Hardware and Software for Digital Embedded Systems written by Rajesh Kumar Gupta and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 275 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Co-Synthesis of Hardware and Software for Digital Embedded Systems, with a Foreword written by Giovanni De Micheli, presents techniques that are useful in building complex embedded systems. These techniques provide a competitive advantage over purely hardware or software implementations of time-constrained embedded systems. Recent advances in chip-level synthesis have made it possible to synthesize application-specific circuits under strict timing constraints. This work advances the state of the art by formulating the problem of system synthesis using both application-specific as well as reprogrammable components, such as off-the-shelf processors. Timing constraints are used to determine what part of the system functionality must be delegated to dedicated application-specific hardware while the rest is delegated to software that runs on the processor. This co-synthesis of hardware and software from behavioral specifications makes it possible to realize real-time embedded systems using off-the-shelf parts and a relatively small amount of application-specific circuitry that can be mapped to semi-custom VLSI such as gate arrays. The ability to perform detailed analysis of timing performance provides the opportunity of improving the system definition by creating better phototypes. Co-Synthesis of Hardware and Software for Digital Embedded Systems is of interest to CAD researchers and developers who want to branch off into the expanding field of hardware/software co-design, as well as to digital system designers who are interested in the present power and limitations of CAD techniques and their likely evolution.
