Networking of Embedded Systems Guru Parulkar Department of Computer Science and Engineering University of California, Riverside and National Science Foundation I want to thank you for giving me this opportunity to present to you our thoughts on this new exciting center. Let ms start with a simple question and a prediction. Has computer and their networking changed your life in many ways in the past ten years? I am sure the answer is yes. The prediction is that the networking of embedded systems will even bigger impact on our lives in the next ten years. We at UCR want to lead this change and that is what this center is about.

Board’s participation will lead to a grand success Executive Summary Sensorial Embedded Systems (SES) show great promise Will bring another IT revolution that is even bigger Networking of SES offer tremendous opportunities Research, technology development, education and overall impact UCR is well positioned to lead Expertise and track record of the faculty Commitment of the University leadership Funding opportunities: federal and industrial I want to share essentially three ideas with you. The first idea is that networking of sensorial embedded systems will bring about another bigger IT revolution. The second idea is that this revolution offers tremendous opportunities for exciting research, technology development, education and most importantly technology transfer and impact on the society. The third idea is that UCR is well positioned to lead this revolution and that is the mission of this center. Finally we strongly believe that board’s participation in terms of help and advice will lead to a grand success for all parties, that is local industry and community, student population, and of course the University. Please allow me to elaborate on each one of these ideas over the next 15 minutes or so. Board’s participation will lead to a grand success 13 January 2019

What is an Embedded System? “Intelligence” built into physical systems Intelligence in the form of computing Examples Weapons Automobiles Appliances Scientific instruments Toys And more Our first idea is that the networking of embedded systems will bring about the second IT revolution. What is an embedded system? In simple terms embedded system has intelligence in the form of computing built into it. And embedded systems have been around since computing has been around and have been getting more and more sophisticated. For example, self guiding missile is a very sophiticated embedded system. Similarly, almost all our automobiles have many, in some cases hundreds of, embedded computers and they do all kinds of functions for us. For example electronic fuel injection, antilock break, mirror control, door control and so on. Continuing on a typical cell phone has a few computers that keep track of names and numbers, play different tones, and other interesting and annoying functions. And so on. It interesting to know that there are 6B embedded processors sold every year whereas there are only couple of hundred million regular processors sold every year. So embedded systems have been a big industry and has been a part of our lives. So what is the big deal now? What is the big deal? 13 January 2019

Technologies Changing the Rules Digital sensors and actuators Very inexpensive and can be integrated into silicon Wireless Low power inexpensive RF Silicon integration Sensor, DSP, CPU, FPGA, wireless, actuators Huge software on a chip Ultimate vision: Smart Dust There are three technologies that are changing the basic rules in this space and they would bring about the revolution. The three technologies are Digital sensors and actuators Low power inexpensive wireless transceiver that can be also integrated into a chip. Finally of course the silicon integration that we are all familiar with. It allows doubling silicon capability every 18 months. The one big difference in this case is that people want to put not only processing but also sensors, DSPs, programmable logic, and actuators on the same chip. So imagine you have a chip (10mm X 10mm) that can sense the environment around it; compute something useful; communicate its results and/or act on them by actuating something. And it costs only few cents. 13 January 2019 UC Berkeley Motes
