Poster - R-Bus - A Resource Bus for Modular System Design.

This paper presents R-Bus, a resource bus for modular system design, that overcomes the limitations of existing approaches with flexible device integration targeted for IoT and Wireless Sensor Actuator Network (WSAN) system design. R-Bus provides a standard pluggable connection based on existing PCI-e x1 socket and connector, that allows up to 36 pins on a single bus enough to accommodate a variety of widely used embedded peripherals. We show that R-bus enhances system integration by providing sufficient resource interface with suitable pin-mapping to cope with diverse IoT application requirements.
