8051 MICROCONTROLLER

Digital Clock using 8051 Microcontroller


In this project, we are going to demonstrate making a RTC Clock using 8051 microcontroller.  If you would like to do this project with Arduino, check this digital clock using Arduino. The major component of this project is DS1307 which is a real time digital clock IC. Lets know about this IC in detail. 

RTC DS1307:
The DS1307 serial real-time clock (RTC) is a low-power, full binary-coded decimal (BCD) clock/calendar plus 56 bytes of NV SRAM. This chip works on I²C protocol. The clock/calendar provides seconds, minutes, hours, day, date, month, and year information. The end of the month date is automatically adjusted for months with fewer than 31 days, including corrections for leap year. The clock operates in either the 24-hour or 12-hour format with AM/PM indicator. The DS1307 has a built-in power-sense circuit that detects power failures and automatically switches to the backup supply. Timekeeping operation continues while the part operates from the backup supply. DS1307 chip can continuously run till 10 year.
8051 based Real time clock is a digital clock to display real time using a RTC DS1307, which works on I2C protocol. Real time clock means it runs even after power failure. When power is reconnected, it displays the real time irrespective to the time and duration it was in off state. In this project we have used a 16x2 LCD module to display the time in - (hour, minute, seconds, date, month and year) format. Real time clocks are commonly used in our computers, houses, offices and electronics device for keeping them updated with real time.

I2C protocol is a method to connect two or more devices using two wires to a single system, and so this protocol is also called as two wire protocol. It can be used to communicate 127 devices to a single device or processor. Most of I2C devices run on 100Khz frequency.

CLOUD WORKFLOW SCHEDULING WITH DEADLINE AND TIME SLOT ALGORITHM

CLOUD WORKFLOW SCHEDULING WITH DEADLINE AND TIME SLOT ALGORITHM Abstract Allocating service capacities in cloud computing is based on the assumption that they are unlimited and can be used at any time. However, available service capacities change with workload and cannot satisfy users’ requests at any time from the cloud provider’s perspective because cloud services can be shared by multiple tasks. Cloud service providers provide available time slots for new user’s requests based on available capacities. In this paper, we consider workflow scheduling with deadline and time slot availability in cloud computing. An iterated heuristic framework is presented for the problem under study which mainly consists of initial solution construction, improvement, and perturbation. Three initial solution construction strategies, two greedy- and fair-based improvement strategies and a perturbation strategy are proposed. Different strategies in the three phases result in several heuristics. ...

MobiContext: A Context-aware Cloud-Based Venue Recommendation Framework

            MobiContext: A Context-aware Cloud-Based Venue Recommendation Framework ABSTRACT  In recent years, recommendation systems have seen significant evolution in the field of knowledge engineering. Most of the existing recommendation systems based their models on collaborative filtering approaches that make them simple to implement. However, performance of most of the existing collaborative filtering-based recommendation system suffers due to the challenges, such as: (a) cold start, (b) data sparseness, and (c) scalability. Moreover, recommendation problem is often characterized by the presence of many conflicting objectives or decision variables, such as users’ preferences and venue closeness. In this paper, we proposed MobiContext , a hybrid cloud-based Bi-Objective Recommendation Framework (BORF) for mobile social networks. The MobiContext utilizes multi-objective optimization techniques to generate personalized recommendat...
