TLDR
A method of automatic generation of application specific operating systems (OS's) and automatic targeting of application software andautomatic targeting ofApplication software is proposed.Abstract:
We propose a method of automatic generation of application specific operating systems (OS's) and automatic targeting of application software. OS generation starts from a very small bur yet flexible OS kernel. OS services, which are specific to the application and deduced from dependencies between services, are added to the kernel to construct the whole OS. Communication and synchronization functions in the application code are adapted to the generated OS. As a preliminary experiment, we applied the proposed method to a system example called token ring system.read more

RTOS Modeling for System Level Design
TL;DR: This paper proposes a RTOS model built on top of existing SLDLs which, by providing the key features typically available in any RTOS, allows the designer to model the dynamic behavior of multi-tasking systems at higher abstraction levels to be incorporated into existing design flows.

Automatic generation of application-specific architectures for heterogeneous multiprocessor system-on-chip
TL;DR: In the flow, architectural parameters are first extracted from a high-level system specification and used to instantiate architectural components, such as processors, memory modules and communication networks, that adapts the processor to the communication network in an application-specific way.

Power analysis of embedded operating systems
TL;DR: This work presents the power profiles for a commercial RTOS, μC/OS, running several applications on an embedded system based on the Fujitsu SPARClite processor and illustrates the ways in which application software can be designed to use the RTOS in a power-efficient manner.

Operating system based software generation for systems-on-chip
TL;DR: A system-level design environment, aimed at System-on-Chip (SOC) designs, including real-time embedded software, is proposed, observing that embedded software makes SOC designs essentially dynamic, and so a SOC modeling environment must include dynamic behavior.

TL;DR: The approach maximizes the amount of static scheduling to reduce the need of context switch and operating system intervention and shows the potential of the method to reduce software design time and errors.
