1. Domain Specific Embedded Software Solutions and Promotion of Embedded Linux in Korea Jung Guk Kim Moon Hae Kim Hankuk Univ. of Foreign studies Konkuk University jgkim@hufs.ac.krmhkim@konkuk.ac.kr

2. 2 Agenda  Introduction  Difficulties of Korean Embedded S/W industry  Trends  Mobile Phone  Telematics  Home Server  DMB  Promotion Policies in Korea

3. 3 Technology Trends, Embedded S/W Control Programs RTOS + Applications Platform Specific Hierarchical S/W Solutions Complex Hierarchy Service Convergence Dependency on OS & Chip vendors increased More royalty, 10-times size increment during past 10 years Common solutions sharing & reuse Emerging of OSS Solutions Embedded Linux, CELF, Qplus, etc

4. 4 Difficulties of Embedded S/W Industries in Korea Embedded-SI oriented contract - not license-based - low cost - narrow market - no packaged solutions Foreign Platforms - Tech. Support & Maintainability - Reliability Co-operation with foreign companies - fast & in-time development - low cost Small business -> lack of - high quality engineers - documents - reliability - continues support - tech. marketing - sharing of commons Big Device Makers Solution Industries Difficulties Difficulties of Embedded Linux - no reliable maintenance & long-term Tech. support - hidden patents - problems as a embedded OS -> CELF - more than 400 companies 5 years ago -> 5 companies

5. 5 Mobile Phone S/W Stack & Competitiveness Domestic Solutions Embedded Operating Systems Telephony Memory DB Sync Multimedia/3D GUI Platform Application framework (VM) Browser Messaging Service and contents support applications Java Phone UI platform DRM better competitive weak very weak

6. 6 Telematics S/W Stack better competitive weak very weak

7. 7 Definition of Home Server + = Home Server Home GW Home STB Network GW Service Home Office Service (VoIP, etc.) Home Automation Service Home Security Service ICE(Information, Communication, Entertainment) Service Home Security, Automation & Office Relevant Services Conents Storage & Authoring IP-STB + Home network

8. 8 Home Gateway S/W Stack Figure. Home Gateway S/W Stack better competitive weak very weak

9. 9 Home STB S/W Stack Figure. Home STB S/W Stack better competitive weak very weak
