Agenda


To emBEdded or not to emBEdded! Experiencing the New Life

Creating Embedded OS and Required Services Running SWS on win XPe

Semantic Web Tech. as core for SI Ontology Representation of Matrices Ontology Makers and Convertors

Conclusion

To emBEdded or not to emBEdded!


The enhancement on modern microprocessors is the essential maker of technological accomplishment.

Considerations such as reduction of clock cycles per operation faster core communication smarter pipelining lower power consumption and built-in wireless standards like WAVE

lead researchers to have full fletched tiny microprocessors and microcontrollers to manage mobile robotic systems.

Cont.


Hardware optimizations such as memory, resource and power management units java hardware acceleration

work with new generation of operating systems.

In contrast, operating systems such as Linux Embedded and Windows XP embedded facilitate running web services and wireless communication platforms.

Running SWS on win XPe


Semantic Web Services are the essential movement toward a new standardization for situation and context awareness.

On the other hand, mobile robots require knowledge representation and reasoning to solve tasks.

Collaborative working requires a universal platform among multiple robots acting autonomously to merge processed data by each agent for perception and building map of interconnected data elements inside possible answers to a query.

Semantic Web Tech. as core for SI


Embedding SW tech on mobile robots powered by new generation of processors and operating systems is a new achievement in data processing and reasoning as the primer core of intelligence for new generation of autonomous collaborate-working robots.

Ontology Representation of Matrices


we define a 2n(n+1) matrix for walls of a matrix with n^2 size.


Conclusion


This research may lead to new software architecture of a universal platform independent framework for design and implementation of semantic agents. Hence the SW tech is not for giving intelligence to the web but facilitating intelligent systems by web technologies to do semantic and understandable reasoning both for human and machine.
