Je voudrais ici remercier ceux et celles qui directement ou indirectement ont contribué à la finalisation de ce projet. Je remercie tout d’abord Georges Noël, ancien professeur de mathématiques du lycée Michel-Montaigne, à Bordeaux, qui fut le premier à faire en sorte que l’ordinateur devienne un de mes fidèles compagnons de route. Joël Langla, professeur à l’École natio- nale d’arts et métiers de Bordeaux, est pour beaucoup dans la concrétisation de cette passion. À ces deux « maîtres » j’adresse mes plus respectueux sentiments. Je remercie également ceux qui ont contribué à mon exploration du monde Linux et Open Source dans mon environnement professionnel : Daniel Roche, Éric Dumas, François Peiffer, Olivier Seston, Jean-Louis Heyd, Michel Stempin, Benoit Papillault, Éric Bénard, Romain Jean, Nicolas Saubade, Peter Williams. Je tiens à exprimer une pensée particulière pour René Cougnenc, pionnier de Linux en France et parti trop tôt. Je remercie également le personnel de la société Open Wide pour son soutien durant ces mois de rédaction : Patrick Bénichou, François Hilaire, Wilfried Marek (merci pour « Brice de Nice »), Sylvie Plasse, Simon Boulay. Je tiens à remercier Patrice Kadionik de l’ENSEIRB qui a su inspirer le chapitre sur µClinux, ainsi qu’Éric Bénard pour les exemples RedBoot. Je remercie le personnel des Éditions Eyrolles, et notamment Muriel Shan Sei Fan pour sa patience et Éric Sulpice qui a initialisé le projet. Je remercie la SNCF dont les navettes TGV ont favorisé la rédaction de cet ouvrage avec le concours d’IBM dont les batteries de ThinkPad durent au moins trois heures ! J’adresse aussi mes plus affectueux sentiments à Cathy, Maxime et Julie. Enfin, merci à Raoul Volfoni et « Dirty » Harry Calahan.

Enabling Mobile Service Continuity across Orchestrated Edge Networks Osamah Ibrahiem Abdullaziz, Student Member, IEEE, Li-Chun Wang, Fellow, IEEE, Shahzoob Bilal Chundrigar and Kuei-Li Huang Abstract—Edge networking has become an important technology for providing low-latency services to end users. However, deploying an edge network does not guarantee continuous service for mobile users. Mobility can cause frequent interruptions and network delays as users leave the initial serving edge. In this paper, we propose a solution to provide transparent service continuity for mobile users in large-scale WiFi networks. The contribution of this work has three parts. First, we propose ARNAB architecture to achieve mobile service continuity. The term ARNAB means rabbit in Arabic, which represents an Architecture for Transparent Service Continuity via Double-tier Migration. The first tier migrates user connectivity, while the second tier migrates user containerized applications. ARNAB provides mobile services just like rabbits hop through the WiFi infrastructure.

  • Android OS for Embedded Real-Time Systems
    ISSN (Online) 2278-1021 IJARCCE ISSN (Print) 2319 5940 International Journal of Advanced Research in Computer and Communication Engineering ISO 3297:2007 Certified Vol. 6, Issue 2, February 2017 Android OS for Embedded Real-Time Systems Smita Sontakke1, Jagruti Thombare2, Pournima Lad3 Student, Computer Engineering, Bharati Vidyapeeth Institute of Technology, Navi Mumbai, India1, 2 Professor, Computer Engineering, Bharati Vidyapeeth Institute of Technology, Navi Mumbai, India3 Abstract: Since Android is recently publicly introduced, Android has taken the interest from companies and the common Audience. This software platform has been constantly enhanced either in term of features or supported hardware; these are extended to new types of devices different from the originally contracted mobile ones. However, there is a feature that has not been researched yet - its real-time capabilities. This paper proposes to remove this gap and provide a basis for discussion on the appropriateness of Android in order to be used in Open Real-Time environments. By analysing the software platform, with the main goal of the virtual machine and its underlying operating system environments, we are able to point out its current restrictions. And using this, we are able to provide a hint on different angel of directions in order to make Android suitable for the environments. It is our position that Android may contribute a suitable architecture for real-time embedded systems, but the real-time community should address its restrictions in a joint effort at all of the platform layers. Keywords: Android, Open Real-Time Systems, Embedded Systems, Suitability. I. INTRODUCTION Android was made available for the public in the year resource that are optimized and are applied by the 2008.
