Embedded System Design Based on Beaglebone Black with Embedded Linux

Abstract

Omer Farook is a member of the faculty of Electrical and Computer Engineering Technology at Purdue University, Calumet. Farook received the diploma of licentiate in mechanical engineering and B.S. M.E. in 1970 and 1972, respectively. He further received B.S.E.E. and M.S.E.E. in 1978 and 1983, respectively, from Illinois Institute of Technology. Farook's current interests are in the areas of embedded system design, hardware-software interfacing, digital communication, networking, image processing, and biometrics, C++, Python, PHP and Java languages. He has a keen interest in pedagogy and instruction delivery methods related to distance learning.Dr. Jai P Agrawal, Purdue University, Calumet (College of Technology) Jai P. Agrawal is a professor in electrical and computer engineering technology at Purdue University, Calumet. He received his Ph.D. in electrical engineering from University of Illinois, Chicago, in 1991, dissertation in power electronics. He also received M.S. and B.S. degrees in electrical engineering from Indian Institute of Technology, Kanpur, India, in 1970 and 1968, respectively. His expertise includes analog and digital electronics design, power electronics, nanophotonics, and optical/wireless networking systems. He has designed several models of high frequency oscilloscopes and other electronic test and measuring instruments as an entrepreneur. He has delivered invited short courses in Penang, Malaysia and Singapore. He is also the author of a textbook in power electronics, published by Prentice-Hall, Inc. His professional career is equally divided in academia and industry. He has authored several research papers in IEEE journals and conferences. His current research is focused on renewable energy technology, smart energy grid. He had done projects on Data Encryption using Reversible Data Hiding (RDH) using Matlab simulation software. Being a co-author of this paper, he had familiarity with Cadence SPB 16.6 CIS software which is extremely useful in designing Schematics which are shown in this paper.He had familiarity with Homer Software, R-Programing etc,,. That is something outstanding about Naveen Kumar. Koyi, a co-author of this publication. Prof EMBEDDED SYSTEM DESIGN BASED ON BEAGLEBONE BLACK WITH EMBEDDED LINUX AbstractThe paper expounds the content of the course and further explores the context with which the course is delivered that finally turns over the ownership of the subject material to the learner in the form of final projects. This is a 400-level course that has retained its technological currency by climbing the evolutionary ladder of myriad of technological advances in hardware, software and OSs. In its current form the course has been totally redesigned based on BeagleBone Black. The BeagleBone Black is a compact, affordable, open-source Linux computing platform ideal for class room learning and designing. The operating system for the board is Linux and course is delivered with C ++ and Python.The paper elaborates the architecture of the board, its multiple processors and acc...
