Background: Embedded multi-core systems often have special limitations in sharing resources and storage capacity. These limitations often lead to parallel programs running with lower parallel efficiency due to bandwidth, data competition and other factors. Objective: In order to improve the performance of embedded multi-core systems, parallel strategies can be adjusted dynamically and adaptively for different parallel program structures. Method: A control mechanism of the thread count based on runtime information feedback is proposed, which enables the system to dynamically select the number of threads when the program runs best according to the structure characteristics of parallel programs. Then, an adaptive dynamic scheduling algorithm is proposed to solve the load imbalance in parallel program execution. Results: An optimization framework based on run-time architecture is presented, which consists of two parts: performance monitoring and control interface. It can take corresponding optimization strategies according to the running state of parallel programs. Conclusion: The performance of embedded multi-core system is improved.

The present work proposes an application of automata’s language and control systems in discrete events theory in a prototype of material handling system to ensure the continuity in the sequence that a transferred piece will have to execute between two points of a productive process. Also guaranteeing the synchronization of its active elements, in this case, a robot in angular configuration and a conveyor belt, for the fulfillment of its specific task without errors. We describe the development of the prototype for testing, the programming of the digital process controllers based on the theoretical methodology suggested, and finally, the integration of a graphical monitoring and control interface that allows the visualization of the system state to the user. The results suggest the adequate performance of the developed algorithms, the graphical interface and, in general, of the active elements that make up the material handling system.

Personal computers (PCs) are a powerful resource in the EM Laboratory, both as a means of automating the monitoring and control of microscopes, and as a tool for quantifying the interpretation of data. Not only is a PC more versatile than a piece of dedicated data logging equipment, but it is also substantially cheaper. In this tutorial the practical principles of using a PC for these types of activities will be discussed.The PC can form the basis of a system to measure, display, record and store the many parameters which characterize the operational conditions of the EM. In this mode it is operating as a data logger. The necessary first step is to find a suitable source from which to measure each of the items of interest. It is usually possible to do this without having to make permanent corrections or modifications to the EM.

A modern dairy farm is a complex biotechnical “man-machine-animal” system, where purposeful human activity concentrates mainly on the control of the “machine” and “animal” subsystems, thus making the whole system ergatic. Increasing the interaction effi ciency of machine subsystems with biological objects (animals) requires an in-depth study of the properties and characteristics of the latter, their behavior, adaptive and refl ex mechanisms that ensure the mutual adaptation of machine and biological subsystems. The paper considers general functionality of the “animal” subsystem, which includes lists of monitored parameters (functions) in pre-weaning, pre-lactation and lactation periods. In a similar way, functionals of the subsystems of the general musculoskeletal development of the animal’s body, respiratory and digestive organs, comfort of the habitat, development and control of the reproductive organs of lactating cows were obtained accompanied with a list of controlled functions and parameters. To carry out a set of research activities in this fi eld, FSAC VIM is planning to carry out a complex project that will increase the levels of automation, digitalization and intellectualization of animal husbandry, provide for comfortable environment, optimal rediced-impact service modes for animals and their extended productive longevity, increased quality of milk and autonomous functioning of individual local biotechnical subsystems.
