Assignment 2 Real-Time Multiple Process Software Design NOTE: This assignment looks very similar to Assignment 1, but is different as it requires you to design and implement multiple processes. Specifically, note the changes and the additional requirements (underlined and bolded) for this second assignment. Outline of task You are required to design, implement and document a multiple process program for a Passenger Lift Control System to execute on a PC. The assignment does not involve any hardware connections to the PC, as the operation of the lift’s sensors and controls are simulated by a program provided for this purpose. To complete this assessment you must, by the due date: 1. submit a text readable Word or PDF report documenting your system design to include a state chart and/or other suitable design diagram(s), a brief explanation of the design choices you have made (particularly with respect to inter-process communication and synchronization) and a source code listing in an appendix 2. submit your individual source code (i.e. .c and .h) files in a zip package Do not submit the report in the zip package, it must be submitted as an individual file. System specification Design The application to be designed must monitor and safely control the operation of a passenger lift. The lift configuration is detailed below. You are required to write a multiple process state driven implementation for a Real-Time control system to meet the following requirements (which are the same set of requirements as for Assignment 1): 1. Control the lift and doors in a safe manner at all times: in particular do not allow doors to be open unless the lift is stopped, and do not start the winch unless the doors are closed. 2. The program must check the call button input(s) A, B, C and D and move the lift to that floor as soon as practical. Current direction of travel should be accounted for. Eg. Do not stop at floor 2 on the way up if a passenger pushed button C to go down. 3. The program must check the level button input(s) 1, 2 and 3 and move the lift to that floor as soon as practical. 4. For design and implementation purposes, you may make the simplifying assumption that only one call button or lift button will be pressed at any one time (for example, you do not need to account for the case where call button D and lift button 2 are pressed simultaneously). This is not a realistic scenario, but the lift simulator program that will be used together with your program accepts keyboard input to emulate the call and lift buttons, so only one button can be pressed at a time. 5. On reaching a floor, the time between the lift door starting to open and starting to close must be at least 7 seconds. 6. Control the lift position to ±0.04m when it stops at each floor (at 0.0, 4.0 and 8.0m) 7. Do not allowing the lift to reach its limits of travel (-0.5m or 8.5m) as equipment damage will occur. 8. There is a key control input K to disable the lift in the event of an emergency. When the lift is on floor 1, if the key control input K is activated, your program must ensure the lift remains on floor 1 (even if other buttons are subsequently pressed) with its doors open until a key control input L moves the lift back to normal operation. Note the key control input K should have no effect if it is activated when the lift is moving or stopped at floors other than floor 1. Figure 1: Lift configuration The lift The lift is as shown in Figure 1. It is comprised of a lift with doors, the winch, a position sensor, 4 call buttons and 3 in-lift buttons. The door control input is used to open and close the lift doors. (+1 for open, 0 for close) Winch Floor 1 Call buttons Floor 2 Floor 3 1 2 3 In Lift buttons Position Sensor 8m 0m 4m Winch control input Lift with doors Level Door control input D C B A Door ajar sensor The winch control input is used to raise or lower the lift at 0.5 m/s. (+1 for raise, -1 for lower, 0 for stop) {Ignore acceleration and deceleration}. The position sensor measures the location of the lift to 0.01m resolution. (Its range is -0.5 to 8.5 m) The door ajar sensor measures the amount the doors are open to 0.01m resolution. (Its range is 0.0 to 1.0 m) The four call buttons A, B, C and D allow passengers to call the lift to their floor. (Up only when called from floor 1 (D), up and down when called from floor 2 (B and C respectively), and down only when called from floor 3 (A)) The three level buttons 1, 2 and 3 in the lift allow passengers to enter the floor they wish to travel to when in the lift. The key control input K disables the lift (with doors open) in the event of an emergency if and only if the lift is on floor 1 until a key control input L is activated to re-enable the lift. Implementation You are required to implement a multiple process real time control program in C using the cygwin64 environment if using a Windows PC. You will be provided with the source code of ‘LiftSim.exe’ as part of a software package, this is a separate program which you run at the same time as your control program (and probably in the same directory as they share memory). This program will simulate the lift hardware (buttons etc) and the movement of the lift, based on your keyboard input. You will also be provided with the header file ‘lift.h’ and the source file ‘liftInt.c’ (these are the same as for Assignment 1) in the software package which provides a set of subroutines that interface with the lift simulation program. A summary of the function of each subroutine is provided below. You should incorporate these files in your program compilation. The first three subroutines control the connection to the lift simulator program. void liftopen(void); Call this routine once at the top of your program to initialize the link to the lift simulator program and reset the lift conditions to their initial states: lift stopped at floor 1, no buttons pressed. void liftclose(void); Call this routine once at the end of your program to close the link to the lift simulator program. void liftreset(void); You may call this routine during your program to re-initialize the lift conditions to their initial states: lift stopped at floor 1, no buttons pressed. The next four subroutines control the winch and the doors, and read the lift position and door ajar sensors. void winch(int onoff); Call this routine with +1, -1 or 0 as a parameter to control the winch. void doors(int onoff); Call this routine with +1 or 0 as a parameter to control the doors. double position(void); Call this routine to determine the instantaneous position of the lift. double doorajar(void); Call this routine to determine the instantaneous position of the doors. It returns the amount the lift door is open/ajar: 0.0 to 1
