  • TRON Forum Admission Guide
    TRON Forum Admission Guide TRON Forum TRON Forum (Location: Shinagawa, Tokyo, Chair: Ken Sakamura, Dean, Faculty of Information Networking for Innovation and Design (INIAD), Toyo University) has been established in 2002 to promote TRON Project which aims to realize the open IoT (Internet of Things) free from constraints of organizations and applications based on “open source,” “open data” and “open API.” The forum has conducted vigorous activities led by Chair Sakamura focusing on T-Engine Project that aims to improve the development environment of embedded systems and operating Ubiquitous ID Center which promotes and disseminates ubiquitous ID architecture and its component technologies such as ucode. The forum has received good reviews worldwide for its activities. For example, Chair Ken Sakamura was honored with an ITU150 Award (*) in May 2015 for proposing TRON open architecture, the origin of ubiquitous networking and the IoT. He was the only winner in Asia among the six winners that included Bill Gates. In 2018, TRON Forum has contributed to create the real-time OS standard for small embedded systems such as IoT terminal devices, "IEEE 2050-2018" (IEEE is TRON Forum Chair: Ken Sakamura the world's largest organization for electric and electronic engineers). In 2019, it has created "TRON IoT Vulnerability Advisory Center”. Its activity has expanded in many directions. (*)On the occasion of the 150th Anniversary of ITU (International Telecommunication Union, the United Nations specialized agency for ICTs, HQ: Geneva, Switzerland), ITU150 Awards were launched to recognize individuals past and present from government, ICT industry, academia, and civil society that have contributed to improving lives of world citizens through ICT innovations developed, promoted or implemented by ITU.

  • Cpaas.Io: an Eujapan Collaboration on Open Smart City Platforms
    CPaaS.io: An EUJapan Collaboration on Open Smart City Platforms Noboru Koshizuka (The University of Tokyo) Stephan Haller (Bern University of Applied Sciences) Ken Sakamura (Toyo University) Abstract Data-driven cities and governments rely significantly on data collec- tion, management, and distribution platforms. In this article, we intro- duce CPaaS.io, a collaborative project between Japan and the European Union with the goal of establishing common smart city platforms for de- ployment in real smart city use cases. 1 INTRODUCTION Today, data are crucial to the functioning of society. In fact, it is sometimes said that the most competitive area in information and communications technology (ICT) is not algorithms but data. The ICT National Strategy of Japan known as Society 5.0 proposes a data-driven society in which data help solve problems in the fields of mobility, supply chains, healthcare, and lifestyle to name a few. This will generate further economic growth and increase quality of life. Conse- quently, both in Japan and the European Union (EU), data have been termed the oil of the 21st century. These data come from a variety of sources: the Internet of Things (IoT) and sensors, open government resources, social media, and industry and business repositories, not to mention the wealth of personal information from individual users. These can be obtained, linked, and analyzed to extract valuable intelligence and transform our society for a better future. In the deployment of smart city services, providing a platform for data collection, management, and distribution is crucial.

  • Analysis of a Hardware-Based Real-Time Kernel
    MÄLARDALEN UNIVERSITY, DEPARTMENT OF SCIENCE, DESIGN AND TECHNOLOGY Analysis of a Hardware- Based Real-Time Kernel Improving Embedded Systems Performance Author: Nils Forsberg ([email protected]) Supervisor: Lennart Lindh Examiner and Supervisor: Moris Behnam 5/5/2014 An evaluation of how to improve embedded and real-time systems performance. I Abstract Embedded systems rely on faster microprocessors and system optimizations to improve their performance. These enhancements are becoming marginal, and so it is interesting to look at other alternatives. This thesis examines the use of a hardware-based kernel called Sierra as an accelerator for software-based real-time operating systems. The software RTOS focused upon is FreeRTOS, and it is compared to Sierra in regards to performance to see if there is actually any improvement to be gained. This proves true, as Sierra is several times faster than FreeRTOS in regards to most of the functionality measured. In order to find out how difficult it would be to perform such acceleration a comparison of the systems is also included, encompassing their architecture, features and functionality. It is showed that the systems are similar in these properties, meaning acceleration would be possible. This information was used in an analysis that shows how to perform the acceleration. The work of implementing system acceleration is not in the scope of this thesis, but the result is presented as a suggestion, or manual, for future work in this vein. II Sammanfattning Inbäddade system förlitar sig på snabbare mikroprocessorer och optimeringar för att nå bättre prestanda resultat. Dessa förbättringar ger allt mindre resultat, och det är därför intressant att hitta alternativ.
