Future Challenges In The Development Of Real-time High Performance Embedded Systems

In designing the portable embedded system, power consumption would be an important issue. Numerous prior issues of power dissipation have been discussed, and there are fewer functions (such as power measurement, power analysis, and power management) supporting for a SoC embedded system development learning board. In order to help designer to get power information in the beginning of design, we propose a development platform for power analysis and build an analysis system for power analysis. The system describes in this paper that has three important features power measurement, power analysis, and power management. By using this system, it can help us to design the development of high performance embedded system designs with low power consumption. This system has been implemented on the real embedded systems to demonstrate the functionalities which we proposed.
