New paradigms for embedded systems, monitoring and control towards complex systems engineering

Embedded systems are widely used to control complex systems. Russian research bodies and private companies are active at development new hardware and software embedded systems; focus is on the real-time control systems and extreme conditions of operations.

Researchers are working on new control amd monitoring systems for industry and manufacturing, telecommunications, consumer electronics, smart homes and health/medical equipment, automotive.

Joint R&D projects oriented to advanced procedures for embedded decision-making can expect a rapid return on investment from telecommunications and multimedia requiring research activity on sensors and communication, networks (conventional and wireless).

The impact is however likely to be felt even more widely in emerging applications such as monitoring over sensor networks and control of industrial processes over wireless Networks.

This domain is supported by the National Platform on Mechatronics, Embedded Control Systems, RFID and Robotics.

The Armenian researchers have many achievements in developing of theory of automatic devices and the automated designing of computing systems, as well as in creating of mathematical models and software for distributed systems. Some companies are specialized in the area of digital design. Their activities are directed to application- specific embedded memory cores design, memory compilers and software tools creation that enable the development and reuse the memory cores as well as to development of electronic design automation (EDA) software for semiconductor design.

Distinguished R&D teams:

1. Virage Logic International Corp., Yerevan Branch, Samvel Shoukourian
2. Instigate CJSC: Arman Pogosyan
3. Viasphere Technopark CJSC
4. Yerevan Telecommunication Research Institute JSC:

Ukraine has critical mass of scientific and technological developments in microelectronics area especially in the fields of:

-   Design platforms, interfaces, methods and tools

-   Embedded systems,

Microelectronics is the one of most developed scientific and technology areas in Ukraine because it was developing as a part of the relevant field of the former Soviet science.

Today, a significant number of organisations and institutions develop microelectronic applications. The world-recognized Ukrainian ICT organisations and Institutes working in this area:

-   Lviv Polytechnic National University,

-   Faculty of Microelectronics - National Technical University of Ukraine “Kyiv Polytechnic Institute”
