Summary

Description

<p>The multi-core processor supports several operating systems including state of the art multiprocessing operating systems, such as Linux SMP, and use ANSI C/C++ allowing existing code to be easily integrated.</p><p>We will evaluate and implement existing techniques to streamline our data processing system.  We will perform benchmark tests (or timing tests) to evaluate our improvements in processing speed needed to solve the problem.</p><p>Our goal is to embed the processor in the on-board electronics, therefore, we must determine the smallest number of cores that provide sufficient processing capabilities compatible with the power resources of the balloon experiment and low earth orbiting satellite.</p>
