This has, in turn, motivated new Operating System (OS) designs to manage these het- erogeneous processors and accelerators systematically. M3 [9] is an OS following the microkernel approach. M3 uses a hardware/- software co-design to exploit the heterogeneous systems in a seamless and effi- cient form. It achieves that by abstracting the heterogeneity of the cores via a Data Transfer Unit (DTU). The DTU abstracts the heterogeneity of the cores and accelerators so that they can communicate systematically. I have been working to enhance the programming environment in M3 by porting a C library to M3. I have evaluated different C library implementations like the GNU C Library (glibc), Musl, and uClibc. I decided to port Musl as it has a relatively small code base with fewer configurations. It is simpler to port, and it started to gain more ground in embedded systems which are also a perfect match for M3 applications.

Un d’ells les la possibilitat d’instal·lar un servidor al ordinador d’escriptori de la llar per a poder compartir la informació que hi és a dins o que es pot anar descarregant d’Internet. L’aplicació MiniDLNA per a GNU/Linux és un servidor lleuger que compleix els estàndards DLNA/UPnP configurable a traves d’un simple arxiu de text, això la fa ideal per al propòsit esmentat de la implantació d’un servidor que ofereixi els continguts a tots els dispositius que compleixin els estàndards esmentats. Aquest treball ve a emplenar el buit existent que te aquest programari en quant a una eina gràfica que serveixi per a poder controlar d’una manera senzilla i intuïtiva aquest servidor, que al ser part d’un programari més gran destinat a altres tasques, no disposa d’aquesta eina esmentada. L’aplicació MiniDLNA_tweaker desenvolupada en aquest treball emplena aquest buit tot permetent tres aspectes bàsics relacionat amb el servidor: Configurar els seus paràmetres, controlar el seu funcionament i poder escollir la informació multimèdia que s’ofereix d’una manera molt més intuïtiva que l’existent.
