Software Agent Design with Real Time Scheduling for Embedded Systems

The Embedded Systems are now in use more commonly in our daily lives. They can accomplish many complicated tasks in different working environments, and concurrency and synchronization are ordinary problems. the embedded software usually must be confronted with. This issue presents a novel method for controlling such problems efficiently. To avoid the inefficiency or collision induced by directly coupling amongst multi-tasks that conventional methods mostly did, software agent architecture designing can cope with such work more properly. The main work of this article includes designing agent architecture for typical concurrency embedded system applications, and adapting classic RMA for scheduling tasks which have soft real time requirements. Lastly, a case study has been done on a typical embedded system scenario, where multi-peripheral devices parallel processing is analyzed with this method and the results show that can get a good concurrence performance.
