It is a popular application development language for its well-encapsulation, platform-independent and high security. There are great amounts of Java games and other gadgets on mobile platforms, as well as on set-up-box systems. As Java applications become more sophisticated, the Java Virtual Machine (JVM) mid-dle-wares in embedded systems are not satisfying, Java-specific chips extend in the market. All existing Java-based system software or Operating System (OS) are used on JVM, they cannot be used on Java processors. It is important to develop a pure Java system software or OS so that embedded systems using Java processors will have great performance in Java applications. This paper presents a set of system software designed for a Java-specified processor VP6K, which is also a System-on-Chip (SoC). This system software includes real-time multitask dispatching, file management, device management, hardware drivers, and infrastructural Application Programming Interface (APIs). According to ex-perimental results, the system software provides interfaces for Java programs to fully handle CPU resource, so that all applications can be executed properly and efficiently. VP6K embedded platform shows its good performance for Java applications when the system software is implemented.展开更多

Power consumption is one of the top of mind issues in cloud, because the usage of cloud storage by the individuals or organization grows rapidly. Developing an efficient power management processor architecture has gained considerable attention. However, the conventional power management mechanism fails to consider task scheduling policies. Therefore, this work presents a novel energy aware framework for power management. The proposed system leads to the development of Inclusive Power-Cognizant Processor Controller (IPCPC) for efficient power utilization. To evaluate the performance of the proposed method, simulation experiments inputting random tasks as well as tasks collected from Google Trace Logs were conducted to validate the supremacy of IPCPC. The research based on Real world Google Trace Logs gives results that proposed framework leads to less than 9% of total power consumption per task of server which proves reduction in the overall power needed.展开更多
