CCPA: Component-based communication protocol architecture for embedded systems

For increased and various communication requirements of modern applications on embedded systems, general pur- pose protocol stacks and protocol models are not efficient because they are fixed to execute in the static mode. We present the Component-Based Communication Protocol Architecture (CCPA) to make communication dynamic and configurable. It can develop, test and store the customized components for flexible reuse. The protocols are implemented by component assembly and support by configurable environments. This leads to smaller memory, more flexibility, more reconfiguration ability, better con- currency, and multiple data channel support.
