Method and system for dynamic configuration of multiprocessor system
A multiprocessor system used in a car, home, or office environment includes multiple processors that run different real-time applications. A dynamic configuration system runs on the multiple processors and includes a device manager, configuration manager, and data manager. The device manager automatically detects and adds new devices to the multiprocessor system, and the configuration manager automatically reconfigures which processors run the real-time applications. The data manager identifies the type of data generated by the new devices and identifies which devices in the multiprocessor system are able to process the data. A communication system for a mobile vehicle, home, or office environment includes multiple processors. The multiple processors each run an Open Communication system that controls how data is transferred between processors based on data content as opposed to the links that connect the processors together. The open communication system enables data or messages to be effectively transferred and processed for real-time applications or other server based applications that may be running on the multiple processors in a secure environment regardless of processors, locations, or data links.
1. A processing system, comprising:
a network, wherein the network comprises one of wired and wireless, and wherein the network is connected to a server by at least one Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) packet switched link, and wherein the server runs real-time applications or other server based applications;
an application processor connected to the network and configured in a language to implement instructions for devices and applications used in the network, and configured to monitor data from different sensors;
a display processor connected to the network and configured in the language to implement instructions for devices and applications used in the network, wherein the instructions control and monitor the application processor through the server using a graphical user interface.
