  • Abstract
    High performance is required of many Android systems because embedded systems written for this operating system are used in several fields and rely on increasingly complicated processing. To accommodate this, we present a software/hardware (SW/HW) coprocessing platform implemented on a programmable system-on-a-chip (Xilinx Inc.: Zynq). This platform provides a unified architecture, extended OS kernel, application framework, and application distribution model to simplify the development and use of Android SW/HW coprocessing applications.
