Embedded Control Unit

Objetivo

The ECU project approaches the OMI from the perspective of the system designer. The project will develop methods and tools to build embedded systems and will demonstrate their use in an industrial control application. ECU will develop tools that allow the system designer to evaluate a complete systems (hardware+software), testing techniques ranging from manufacturing test to on-line diagnostics, and microkernels adapted for the use in embedded real time systems, with special emphasis on support of the design process.

Concrete objectives of the ECU project are:

- Demonstrating the approach proposed by the OMI incorporating hardware and software developments in industrial applications. ECU will use available results of the OMI in the areas of ELI, Standards and Software. The use of the results will be facilitated by the presence of two members of the consortium in existing OMI projects (SMILE and OMIDIS).
- Develop tools and methodology targeted for the system designer in order to allow the effective use of the building of the OMI. The tools will be combined into the ECU development systems. The tools developed will target the following needs:

- System evaluation/architecture simulation.
- Testing
- Diagnostics and debugging
- Development of Rate Monotonic Scheduling Microkernel for Embedded use.
- Adaptation of an existing commercial R.T. Microkernel.
- Development of an application in the area of distributed real time control. The application will use the SPARCTM based CPU and software results (testing, diagnostics, microkernels). The ECU tools will be used for the development of the application.
- Development of a SPARCTM based CPU for the target application.
- Acquiring experience and know-how within the partners organizations in order to make full use of the results of ECU and OMI.

All objectives will be demonstrated in a target industrial system that will be developed within the project. Additionally all tools will be used in the development of the system.

The project builds on results obtain by the OMI in particular the definition of the Pi-Bus which is an important standard to build a modular design and the peripherals cells for I/O and Real-Time support that are being developed in the SMILE project.

The proposed work is centered on the SPARC architecture, but the techniques are applicable to other architectures. ECU will collaborate with the standards projects of the OMI or the debug activities to generalize the methodology and the debug protocols for other architectures.

Although the application of the tools and techniques is not limited by the application sector, the prime target for the results of ECU are system designs in which system engineering is a significant fraction of the overall cost of the system. Therefore results are mainly targeted to the professional electronics sector.
