  2. Presentation outline 1. Embedded Systems Area 2. Project portfolio after WP2003-04 3. Embedded Systems in WP2005-06 - content - instruments - budget 4. Relationship with closest Strategic Objectives

  3. Embedded Systems - what they are Information World Components integrating software and hardware jointly and specifically designed to provide a given functionality Signals World

  4. What is special about Embedded Systems? • are tightly coupled to to the physical world • are surrounded by physical processes • are highly resource constrained • energy, heat , size, cpu, memory, bandwidth • will have to last for a long period of time • interoperability becomes a major issue • user interface needs to be very simple or none • are subject to high or extremely high assurance requirements

  5. Embedded Systems - Application drivers 90% of the innovation in the car is related to electronics More than a million lines of C code in today’s mobile phones Automotive Consumer HomeAutomation Aerospace Software for the connected home market will grow from 1,2 million in 2001 to 110 million by 2006 Large part of the of development cost of an airplane is related to software

  6. Embedded Systems - Challenges Requirements: • Reduce costs • Time to market • Optimal quality System-Centric research • Global design • Generic middleware to easy programmability • Integrate advanced control to increase intelligence Both design and middleware can be implemented by hw or sw depending on system needs and constraints

  7. Embedded Systems - Market implications • Designs with increased value • Standards will be consolidated • An applications development community independent of hardware and infrastructure providers will emerge (comparable to business systems after the consolidation of Internet/Web services)

  8. Project Portfolio after WP2003-04 Networked Embedded Systems System Design RUNES IP DECOSASSERT IP ICODES STREP HIJA COMPARE COBIS BETSY GOLLUM Embedded WISENTS CA STREP HIPEAC ARTIST2 Control Systems CEMACS NECST STREP NoE HYCON NoE

  9. Embedded Systems - Workprogramme 2005-06 • To develop the next generation of technologies and tools for modelling, implementation and operation of hw/sw systems embedded in intelligent devices Two priorities: • System Design of Embedded Systems • Networked Embedded Systems

  10. System Design – Workprogramme 2005-06 (1) • Model-based system design, validation and testing • Interoperability at the semantic level of model and tools • Design methods, programming models and compilation tools for reconfigurable architectures • Mastering of heterogeneity and predictability Key issues for both are component-based, modular design and addressing heterogeneity Complements “Nanoelectronics” that focus on chip design including SoC and SiP Instruments: IP, STREP, CA, SSA

  11. System Design – Workprogramme 2005-06 (2) • Constraints addressed in system design in call 4 goes beyond real-time (e.g. energy, memory, safety, security, QoS) • We want to emphasize the generic aspects across product variants and across sectors • Availability of skills and system view is expected to be addressed in IPs • NoE’s are NOT eligible for System Design

  12. Networked Embedded Systems - WP 2005-2006 (1) Middleware and platforms for building secure, swarming and fault-tolerant networked embedded systems where diverse physical objects cooperate to achieve a given goal • Middlewarefor wireless objectsto hide the underlying infrastructure and provide open interfaces to third parties for application development • Scalable and selforganisingplatforms that offer services for ad-hoc networking ofvery small objectsand for mastering complexity through perception techniques for object and event recognition

  13. Networked Embedded Systems - WP 2005-2006 (2) • While the developed technology must be generic it should be driven by an entire class of ambitious future applications covering not only information handling but also perception and control

  14. For both areas • Link with ITEA, MEDEA and other relevant programmes should be described • Involvement of SMEs • Tool developers and vendors • Technology brokers (SME associations or technology transfer centers)

  15. Embedded Systems - Instruments IP: integrate basic and fundational research, component research and systems engineering and integration consider training activities involve SMEs for component development and consider the participation of technology brokers NoE: creation of virtual research centers on specific scientific domains and including industry STREP: explore emerging technologies or alternative approaches opening new prospects in the field CA: community building and definition of research agendas SSA: international co-operation, SMEs

  16. Budget Distribution • Pre-allocation of 90% of budget • Embedded Systems: 68 M€ (100% = 75 M€) • Instruments IP and NoE: 60% of budget • Instruments STREP/CA/SSA: 40% of budget

  17. Embedded Systems - relation to other areas in Call 5 Environment Networked Businesses Applications Embedded Systems Systems Complex systems Software and Services Building Blocks Advanced GRID Technologies Microsystems
