Abstract/Summary:
Embedded systems normally have real-time constraints and timing analysis, which often statistically determines the maximum execution time of a task or a program. The objective of this thesis is to find the execution time of tasks in order to make static scheduling decisions so that the tasks can meet their deadlines. Static determination of the execution time imposes restrictions on the system design, and these restrictions can significantly limit the class of program that would be suitable for real time system. This thesis tries to devise a methodology to develop a timing chart, which can be used for further designs where hard real time deadlines have to be met.; Earlier researches have found discrepancies in the A/D conversion and this thesis will set forth a methodology to determine, evaluate and decipher the data loss problem. The increasing reputation of Linux made it advantageous to see if the system under consideration was compatible. Since Linux provides an open source environment and completely available source code there is a complete shift in the paradigm. The cost analysis of the A/D board with that of the board currently used resulted in some important conclusions. This thesis involves a methodology to detect the data loss problem and then comes up with the timing chart for various mathematical functions that has cleared the specifications.
