EMBEDDED SYSTEMS UNIT I FUNDAMENTALS OF EMBEDDED SYSTEMS 9 Definition and classification – Overview of processors and hardware units in an embedded system – Software embedded into the system – Exemplary embedded systems – Embedded Systems on a Chip (SOC) and the use of VLSI designed circuits. UNIT II DEVICES AND BUSES FOR DEVICES NETWORK 9 I/O devices – Device I/O types and examples – Synchronous ISO – Synchronous and asynchronous communications from serial devices – Examples of internal serial communication devices – UART and HDLC – Parallel port devices – Sophisticated interfacing features in devices/ports – Timer and counting devices – 12C, USB, CAN and advanced I/O serial high speed buses – ISA, PCI, PCI-X, CPCI and advanced buses. UNIT III PROGRAMMING CONCEPTS AND EMBEDDED PROGRAMMING IN C, C++ 9 Programming in Assembly Language (ALP) vs high level language – C program elements – Macros and functions – Use of pointers – NULL pointers – Use of function calls – Multiple function calls in a cyclic order in the main function pointers – Function queues and interrupt service routines – Queue pointers – Concepts of embedded programming in C++ – Objected oriented programming – Embedded programming in C++ – C program compilers – Cross compiler – Optimization of memory codes. UNIT IV REAL TIME OPERATING SYSTEMS – PART 1 9 Definitions of process, tasks and threads – Clear cut distinction between functions – ISRS and tasks by their characteristics – Operating system services – Goals – Structures – Kernel – Process management – Memory management – Device management – File system organization and implementation – I/O subsystems – Interrupt routines handling in RTOS. REAL TIME OPERATING SYSTEMS : RTOS task scheduling models – Handling of task scheduling and latency and deadlines as performance metrics – Co-operative round robin scheduling – Cyclic scheduling with time slicing (Rate monotonics cooperative scheduling) – Preemptive scheduling model strategy by a scheduler – Critical section service by a preemptive scheduler – Fixed (Static) real time scheduling of tasks. INTER PROCESS COMMUNICATION AND SYNCHRONISATION: Shared Data problem – Use of semaphore(s) – Priority inversion problem and deadlock situations – Inter process communications using signals – Semaphore flag or mutex as resource key – Message queues – Mailboxes – Pipes – Virtual (Logical) sockets – Remote Procedure Calls (RPCs). UNIT V REAL TIME OPERATING SYSTEMS – PART 2 9 Study of micro C/OS II or VX works or any other popular RTOS – RTOS system level functions – Task service functions – Time delay functions – Memory allocation related functions – Semaphore related functions – Mailbox related functions – Queue related functions – Case studies of programming with RTOS – Understanding case definition – Multiple tasks and their functions – Creating a list of tasks – Functions and IPCS – Exemplary coding steps.
