Takuya Azumi, Hiroaki Takada, Takayuki Ukai, Hiroshi Ōyama · 2010
Software component techniques have been widely used for enhancement and the cost reduction of software development. We herein introduce a component system with a real-time operating system (RTOS). A case study of a two-wheeled inverted pendulum balancing robot with the component system is presented. The component system can deal with RTOS resources, such as tasks and semaphores, as components. Moreover, a trace functionality which is a new functionality to confirm the state of components or calling components without modification of C source code is introduced.
