Description
PROSOFT 6104-WA-PDPM In hard real-time systems, failing to meet deadlines can have significant consequences. For instance, consider the scenario of launching a missile from a space station. The missile comprises an embedded system that enables its launch alongside a satellite in space.
The missile must be launched precisely on time. Any delay would disrupt the functionality of both the satellite and the missile, as the satellite operates only at a specific time. Exceeding the time limit would result in an incorrect output function, causing significant loss of time and money. Therefore, it is essential for this hard real-time system to be accurate.
PROSOFT 6104-WA-PDPM offers a network interface and network access, including via LAN or the Internet, through a device known as a network information device. These embedded systems are commonly connected to networks using technical cooperation programmes, such as the Internet Protocol. Such systems have become increasingly popular in recent years and are now used in trending technologies like IoT.
For instance, a webcam can be connected to the internet, enabling it to transmit pictures to the user via a computer or mobile phone that shares the same network as the internet connection. As a result, the webcam requires TP server software, in addition to the usual tml/IP stack.
Mobile devices, including mobile phones, smartphones, and PDAs, are categorised as a distinct class of embedded devices. The PROSOFT 6104-WA-PDPM undertakes numerous general-purpose tasks. However, it requires a design similar to that of a conventional embedded system.
Whilst mobile devices have progressed with embedded features, they still have limitations in terms of small size, memory constraints and inadequate interfaces. Therefore, taking mobile phones into account, the PROSOFT 6104-WA-PDPM is capable of supporting applications for various purposes.
