| Abstract | Nowadays, embedded systems with Linux OS are commonly applied in automotive industry. Some of applications require strict time response, and others need to be exactly scheduled to execute a period task. All of these are called time-sensitive applications. Measuring and evaluating time parameters of an embedded system for time-sensitive applications is very necessary for developers to guarantee that it works functionally. For this purpose, signal stimulating and signal analyzing hardware are required. In this thesis, modular signal generating and signal analyzing means will be designed. The prototype of the evaluation system will be implemented to test and verify an embedded system. Improving the performance of the system is the next part of this thesis. The research focuses deeper on the possibility of turning Linux into a real-time operating system. Particularly, it investigates available real-time solutions for Linux, but also looks into the soft variants for completeness. A number of performance tests are conducted during the improvement to make sure that the implementation meets the demands of a real-time operating system. |
