Intelligent information system for automatic generation of symbols in the APP-6D standard

Military symbols play a key role in the command and control of military forces. By communicating information that meets basic requirements, situational awareness can be quickly achieved; by its graphical nature, it provides a common operating language that greatly facilitates interaction across cultural and linguistic barriers. With the advent of information technology, the need arose for rapidly recognized international standards that could then be taught to computers. The fusion of high standard air, sea and land symbols on APP-6 paper resulted in Mil-Std-2525 and NATO APP-6D.

Embedded Systems Multimedia Framework for Microcontroller Devices

The presented  paper attempts to establish a generalized approach to the development of embedded systems multimedia applications. It is formalized in the form of a framework that defines rules and recommenda- tions for a developer on how to implement specific pieces of software that work with multimedia data. The basis for the development process is the division of the system’s func- tionality into stages with the following development of each stage. The framework also defines how touch sensor events may be elaborated.
