This article introduces the reader to the considerations that had to be taken when cleaning and refreshing two of its large display cases at the Jewish Museum of Greece. Those display cases contain a mixed collection of variable items namely costumes, photographs, prints and wa-tercolours. The staff of the museum planned in advance, ensuring the safety of the objects and staff. Eventually it is natural for unpredicted problems to occur in the real time process. The Museum acknowledged the convenience of the visitor pathway and, moreover, granted visual access to the treatment actions by encouraging communication with the working staff, enriching the visitor experience. Finally the process was beneficial for evaluating the staff's teamwork and the production of a record, and a methodology to be followed for other display cases of the museum and potentially by other institutions.

AbstractThis paper presents a framework based on embedded SOC systems, which allows the testing and use of control algorithms implemented on FPGA circuits. For monitoring and parameterization a real-time Linux operating system was used. In this paper different methods for data exchange between the operating system and the control unit were introduced. The delay between the operating system and the control unit during the data exchange was studied and the measurement results discussed reflect the real-time functionality of the system.

Many embedded systems applications have hard timing requirements where real-time processes with precedence and exclusion relations must be completed before specified deadlines. This requires that the worst-case computation times of the real-time processes be estimated with sufficient precision during system design, which sometimes can be difficult in practice. If the actual computation time of a real-time process during run-time exceeds the estimated worst-case computation time, an overrun will occur, which may cause the real-time process to not only miss its own deadline, but also cause a cascade of other real-time processes to also miss their deadline, possibly resulting in total system failure. However, if the actual computation time of a real-time process during run-time is less than the estimated worst-case computation time, an underrun will occur, which may result in under-utilization of system resources. This paper describes a method for handling underruns and overruns when scheduling a set of real-time processes with precedence and exclusion relations using a pre-run-time schedule. The technique effectively tracks and utilizes unused processor time resources to reduce the chances of missing real-time process deadlines, thereby providing the capability to significantly increase both system utilization and system robustness in the presence of inaccurate estimates of the worst-case computation times of real-time processes.

Turbopump is a high-fault-rate component in Liquid Rocket Engine (LRE). The research on real-time process monitoring technology and system for turbopump is vital to increase the reliability and safety of LRE. In this paper, three real-time process monitoring algorithms for turbopump were studied firstly, on the basis of monitoring parameters selection and multiple domain feature extraction. Then, the real-time monitoring system realized by means of PXI (PCI eXtensions for Instrumentation) controller was introduced. And, aiming at the shortage of the previous system, the real-time process monitoring system based on DSP (Digital Signal Processor) for turbopump was studied to realize higher computing speed, which could conduce to extract multiple domain features and run manifold real-time monitoring algorithms. The new system could also satisfy the small-sized requirement in engine flying state.

AbstractMelanoma is considered the deadliest skin cancer and when it is in an advanced state it is difficult to treat. Diagnoses are visually performed by dermatologists, by naked-eye observation. This paper proposes an augmented reality smartphone application for supporting the dermatologist in the real-time analysis of a skin lesion. The app augments the camera view with information related to the lesion features generally measured by the dermatologist for formulating the diagnosis. The lesion is also classified by a deep learning approach for identifying melanoma. The real-time process adopted for generating the augmented content is described. The real-time performances are also evaluated and a user study is also conducted. Results revealed that the real-time process may be entirely executed on the Smartphone and that the support provided is well judged by the target users.

Commonly, the sensor installed by these entities collects the citizen and infrastructure data by explicit approval. The performance based on the outline of the citizens could be done through AI depending on the data they offer that could promote advancements in the cities, or it could be utilized for the profit of the corporation. Certain barriers should be crossed in order to succeed in achieving the deployments of the cities. Commonly, the only target is to inform AI through the data gathered by the IoT in the real-time process. At certain times, the generation of data is the main part that is done by several elements, and this could be employed in a deliberate way. Certain challenges are also faced in the economic growth and its impact on biomedical industry. This chapter presents the impact of smart technology and economic growth for biomedical applications.

Information of temperature and humidity in planting media is very important for cultivation activities and  the process of plant growth, where the real time process is very useful to determine the watering process on planting media. The purpose of the research that has been done was to design a monitoring system for soil temperature and humidity on the planting media and to make an automatic plant watering sprinkler by detecting soil moisture. A design for monitoring soil temperature and humidity on planting media has been made with a microcontroller. This instrument works when the pump detects soil with a range ​​from 0-3 cm/Hg for dry, 3.1-6 cm/Hg for moist and 6-7.9 cm/Hg for wet. When the soil is dry, the pump will work by removing water and stop when the soil is damp or wet.

Elaboration of modern airplane cockpit has tendency to use large displays instead of a lot of separate indicators. The large display should combine information about flight navigation and state of plane equipment. Information coming from a wide variety of devices should be displayed simultaneously. Therefore multi-windows rendering is vitally important here. Its implementation must be embedded in real-time operating system which controls the aircraft. Development of a Safety Critical Compositor for multi-windows rendering for OpenGL SC 1.0.1 software is considered in the paper. It works under the real-time operating system JetOS newly designed for aircraft. Development is based on the use of extensions designed to work in multi-core systems in addition to standard JetOS partitioning services.
