The 3rd Workshop on TRON/Ubiquitous Computing Technology

The 3rd Workshop on TRON/Ubiquitous Computing Technology has finished.

Workshop on TRON/Ubiquitous Computing Technology started from this fiscal year. The 3rd workshop will be held as sessions in the annual TRONSHOW. In this workshop, we will focus on the latest trends including that of T-Kernel 2.0 and education in Japan and overseas in one session. Session 1 is entitled “T-Kernel Now,” and is full of the latest topics related to T-Kernel. These topics include approaches toward quality improvement, examples of how T-Kernel is applied to products, and furthermore, T-Kernel Extension 2.0 and porting of Qt. Session 2 covers the topic of education, which is essential for the improvement of the fundamental embedded technology development abilities. Approaches using T-Engine/T-Kernel in universities in Japan and overseas activities will be introduced.
In addition, in Special Seminar entitled “Self-medication Using Ubiquitous ID,” we will focus on self-medication, as one application case examples of ubiquitous ID. Associate Professor Hori from The University of Tokyo, who specializes in drug information, will introduce the idea of self-medication, which is to maintain your own health by yourself. Electronic Medication Record Book Using ucode will also be introduced. We encourage you to participate in the seminar and join the discussion.

Session 1 “T-Kernel Now”

1. Result of Introducing Derivative Development Technique ―Achieving Improvement of Productivity and Quality of Embedded System Development Centering around T-Kernel ―
[Speaker]
Hideo Sakaya (Hitachi Information & Control Solutions, Ltd. Senior Engineer, Embedded Software Dept.2, Embedded Systems Division)
[Profile]
Mr. Sakaya jointed the company in 1984. He was engaged in the development of Japanese word processors. From 1998, he got involved in the development work of C/C++ Compiler. He is currently working on the improvement of the software development process through the development of various tools for project management, configuration management, process management, etc.

[Presentation Content]
In our company, 80% of the entire software development is derivative development. Although the workflow and process of modification was defined, various problems typical for derivative development were occurring in the actual work site. Because of this, we have been focusing on XDDP (eXtreme Derivative Development Process), which is a process specializing in derivative development for about 2 years, and introduced it in the company and developed our own tool to improve the process. In this presentation, the history of introduction and achievement will be reported.
