Rajendra Alluri, Associate Lead – Software, Schneider Electric India
Audience Level: Intermediate
Prerequisites: Understanding of communication protocols
Key takeaways: Attendees will be able to understand how to simulate a
communication protocol behavior and the example implementation of a
communication protocol.
Presentation abstract: Communication protocols behavior is unpredictable
and it is similar to the behavior of multiple processes in a real-time system.
Simulating a communication protocol behavior can reduce the overhead on
testing of different network scenarios. The goal of this presentation is to address
the issues and discuss the solutions for creating a simulation of a communication
protocol by using Model Driven Verification tools like SPIN, using PROMELA and
Linear Temporal Logic (LTL) for modeling the communication protocol behavior.
11.00 Morning refreshments, exhibition and networking
11.15 Stack Analysis of Embedded Application
Vanchana Raul, Senior Engineer, Eaton Technologies
Audience Level: Intermediate
Prerequisites: Attendees should have basic knowledge of embedded systems
Key takeaways: This paper will present the application of static and dynamic
analysis that allow Embedded Software Designers and verification engineers to
find maximum stack used by the embedded system. This will help to improve
software design.
Presentation abstract: Nowadays, embedded systems are used in a variety of
applications like aerospace, automotives, medical equipments etc. Safety critical
systems require memory utilization to be known. Stack is First In, Last Out data
type. Stack Analysis is to find maximum memory used by descending function
calls. Stack Analysis can be done by two methods viz. Static and Dynamic.
Dynamic approach consists of measuring the maximum amount of stack actually
used while running application. Static approach computes stack consumption for
each function combined with control flow analysis.
12.30 Industry Keynote
13.00 Lunch, exhibition and networking
14.00 Object oriented design approaches to embedded systems

Conrad Gomes, Senior Software Engineer, Sling Media
To register - Tel: +91 (022) 4046 1466 Fax: +91 (022) 4046 1477
Presentation abstract: Civil engineers have learned how to avoid failure
from their rich history of bridge collapses, tunnel floodings, and building
disintegrations. The firmware world is quite different; it seems we all make the
same mistakes, repeatedly. Yet most problems have similar root causes. In
this class we’ll examine a number of embedded disasters, large and small, and
extract lessons we must learn to improve our code.

16.35 Really Real Time Systems
Jack Ganssle, Writer, Embedded Systems Programming
Audience level: Intermediate Updated Class
Prerequisites: Knowledge of interrupt handling and C
Key Takeaways: Attendees will learn to structure code to meet performance
requirements.
Presentation abstract: Most smaller embedded systems meet their real time
requirements only by luck. We have few techniques that help us design a system
that will be timely and predictable. This talk will show you practical (no UML,
no academic proofs) ways to include time in your design, to help you produce
a system that meets its deadlines, rather than beating a slow system into
submission late in the debug stage. We’ll examine the real speeds of common
C constructs on various 8 and 16 bit CPUs, as well as faster alternatives to
some compiler-supplied library routines. We’ll examine some of the hype around
multicore processors as well.
17.50 Close of ESC India 2011 Day One
Audience level: Intermediate
Prerequisites: C and design concepts
Key Takeaways: Evolution of system design approach towards OOPS. Re-
usability and scalability of existing systems by using OOPS design concepts.
Presentation abstract: Large scale and complex embedded systems built using
legacy non-OOPS (e.g C, assembly) are hard to change and evolve. Typically
the approach binds a monolithic and tight integration with the underlying system.
OOPS brings in a fresh dimension to the design approach to an embedded
system keeping in mind the future changes and evolution. Challenges and
problems in the domain can be tackled by re-using patterns adopted and proven
in the field. As an example, networked devices / systems typically work in a
concurrency model, these devices / systems have a good scope of using OOPS
to solve problems.
15.15 Exhibition and networking break
15.30 Sponsor sessions
16.20 Afternoon refreshments, exhibition and networking
16.35 Quality Audio Software Pipeline
Subhranil Choudhury, Senior Design Engineer, Ittiam Systems
Audience level: Intermediate
Prerequisites: There should be some basic level of understanding of the
software audio pipeline in a multi-media system
Key Takeaways: Identifying the issues that generally appear in multi-media
audio software systems, and ways to ensure that the less perceivable issues are
not introduced in the audio software pipeline.
Presentation abstract: Quality Audio is one of the prime ingredients of a
multimedia system. Generally, a lot of care is taken to maintain the audio quality
at hardware level but very limited thought is put to the audio software pipeline.
The issues like clipping, noise, glitches, channel-reversal, audio breaks, etc
can get introduced in the audio path by firmware and software. Most of these
issues are very difficult to unearth as they are less perceivable for ears but
affect the overall quality of the audio. The paper talks about the various causes,
their criticality and the best practices in designing for best quality audio in a
multimedia system focusing on its firmware and application level challenges.

12.30 Industry Keynote
13.00 Lunch, exhibition and networking
www.esc-india.com
14.00 Power Management Techniques for Embedded Software Designers
Gajanan Bhatarkar, Lead Embedded Architect, Eaton India Engineering
Centre, Eaton Technology
Audience level:
Advanced
Prerequisites:
Attendees need to be aware of power management techniques available
on different microcontroller architectures. This includes, individual clock
controls, interrupt controls, idle/low power mode controls.
Key Takeaways:
This paper will present techniques that allow Embedded Designers
to design embedded software architectures ensuring minimum use of
microcontroller’s power, still performing all desired functions.
Presentation abstract:
In today’s age, most of the devices are becoming standalone and miniature.
Standalone: they need to have their own power supply. Miniature: they
need to have minimum size, which means small size of power supplies
primarily batteries. In such scenarios it’s apparent that all intelligent systems
which can consist of microcontrollers or other devices need to have power
management. Embedded Designers/Architects can design architectures
which will allow the microcontroller to remain in idle/low power mode, which
saves power and still perform desired functions.

signal processing application and determine whether FPGA or DSP centric
architecture suits the application.
Presentation abstract:
Signal processing in embedded systems poses several challenges to
system designers. Deciding whether processing is to be performed by DSP
or FPGA or both is one such intriguing problem. The decision is very critical
as an erroneous decision may cause irreparable damage to the project.
This presentation, based on the author’s experience, details the criteria
to be considered for selecting the processing element and is intended for
signal processing system architects and all engineers who plan their career
in this field.
17.50 Close of ESC India 2011 Day One
 Conference Day TWO – Thursday 21 July 2011
09.00 Registration and refreshments
Track One
09.45 Embedded Android Workshop – part one of four
Karim Yaghmour, Author, O’Reilly’s Building Embedded Linux
Systems
Audience Level:
Intermediate
Prerequisites:
Familiarity with Unix/Linux command line and concepts along with previous
use of GNU toolchain for embedded system development
Key takeaways:
Attendees will learn how to put together Android-based embedded systems
based on Google’s Android Open Source Project (AOSP)
Presentation abstract:
While Android has been created for mobile devices -- phones first and now
tablets -- it can, nonetheless, be used as the basis of any touch-screen
system, whether it be mobile or not. Essentially, Android is a custom-
built embedded Linux distribution with a very elaborate and rich set of
user-space abstractions, APIs, services and virtual machine. This one-day
workshop is aimed at embedded developers wanting to build touch-based
embedded systems using Android. It will cover Android from the ground
up, enabling developers to get a firm hold on the components that make up
Android and how they need to be adapted to an embedded system.
Specifically, we will start by introducing Android’s overall architecture and
then proceed to peel Android’s layer one-by-one. First, we will cover the
Android Open Source Project (AOSP), the open source project under which
Android’s source code is released. We will then dig into the native Android
user-space, Android’s power tools, and cover how hardware support is
implemented in Android. Given that Android is built on top of Linux, we
will also go over some embedded Linux tricks and see how the kernel is
modified to support the Android user-space. In addition, we will look at the
System Server, the Android Framework and core Android applications, and
how to customize them.
Track TWO
09.45 Code Optimization Techniques for Embedded Systems
Mayura Madane, Senior Engineer in Electrical Sector Technologies,
Eaton India Engineering Centre
Kiran H Dahimiwal, Manager of Electrical Sector Technologies, Embedded
Controls CoE, Eaton India Engineering Center
Audience Level:
Intermediate
Prerequisites:
Attendees need to be aware of Embedded ‘C’ development
Key takeaways:
This paper will present manual code optimisation techniques which can be
applied while writing C programs for Embedded Systems. These techniques
are very obvious and sometimes missed by the developer in long run of
software development. These can also be treated as basic practices for
writing C programs.
Presentation abstract:
Embedded Software often runs on processors with limited computation
power and limited memory capacity. Thus, optimizing code becomes
a necessity. Code optimization is the process of modifying a software
system to make programs work more efficiently i.e. with more speed or
use fewer resources for e.g. less code/data memory. Poor quality of coding
can sometimes mislead automatic compiler optimization, resulting in no
optimization. Overall, effective optimization can be achieved by using
manual optimization along with automatic one. These manual optimization
techniques basically target the structure of the code/functions and poor
quality of coding.

Key Takeaways:
System designers will be made aware of the vulnerabilities in their device.
They will learn programming techniques that prevent hacks and make the
devices safe.
Presentation abstract:
Today an increasing numbers of embedded devices have connectivity to
internet. Many of them run applications developed by untrusted sources.
With increased flexibility and features come potential threat of the devices
being hacked or malicious firmware installed that can render the device

16.35 A Practical Review of Software Requirements Engineering
Techniques
Rob Oshana, Director of Global Software R&D for Networking and
Multimedia, Freescale Semiconductor
Presentation abstract:
Software requirements is not just about writing a requirements document.
It’s about doing the right things to really understand the system. In
this course we will cover these techniques. We start with providing
a satisfaction argument for the system requirements which drive the
environmental assumptions to be satisfied, and the domain properties of
the system to hold and be consistent with each other. We’ll talk about
techniques for framing the problem using frame diagrams, creating an
explicit framework for the control system using the four variable model, how
to perform a sequence enumeration, managing risk using fault trees and
cut-set trees, and other methods for exposing hidden requirements.

Audience Level:
Introductory
Prerequisites:
Basic familiarity with streaming systems and steps that one usually follows
in testing an embedded system
Key takeaways:
The attendee would learn a holistic approach towards testing streaming
system software - thorough, efficient and well structured.
Presentation abstract:
Developers and testers of multimedia systems can relate to the irony of
a ‘supposedly’ well-tested product failing to perform in the expected way
on the field. Typically, a problem reported by a customer or found during a
particular certification test cycle could have actually been found and rectified
at a much earlier stage, and possibly with a much lower cost impact. The
most common source of shortcomings in such software entities arises
from the lack of understanding “how” to test and “what” to test for. In this
paper, we shall cover various aspects related to addressing these two
questions, with specific examples to illustrate these points. The approach
that is described in this document shall be referred to as the FUSE Testing,
and focuses on four main aspects – Functionality, Usage, Stability and
Exactness.
