Embedded System Development

Brunel GmbH / Artis GmbH

  • Design and development of an object-oriented process framework for a real-time measurement data acquisition system

  • Development of architecture concept for base classes

  • Development of base classes (C++)

  • Development of process monitor (C++)

  • Database design/administration

  • C++, Jaluna C5, Chorus OS

  • Berkeley DB, SQLite, stored procedures

Artis GmbH developed PCI plug-in cards for control systems that could detect fault conditions in machine tools before machine damage occurred. The latest development was a PCI card (“ASV5”) that used a fast PowerPC processor, controlled by an embedded real-time operating system (Jaluna, Chorus OS) with a POSIX layer. My task was to detail and implement the existing design concept by creating requirement specifications for subprocesses. An important criterion was achieving a response time of 1-10 ms. I handled tasks in inter-process communication and database programming (including base classes, process state machine, MIPC, event handling).

In application development, the focus was on reengineering, code stabilization (Insure), automation of the software generation process, and remote control of the decentralized control computer.
