Popis: The development of wearable robotic technology has accelerated recently due to active research in industrial technology. Wearable robots are used to help patients with lower-body palsy to walk. This paper reports a generic wearable-robot monitoring system (GWRMS) that supports resource monitoring and status prediction. The GWRMS offers universal support for operating systems that comply with the Portable Operating System Interface (POSIX) application programming interface (API), reducing limitations that arise due to the choice of operating system and processor. This system improves optimisation of a program operating in a robot-embedded system by detecting overhead in the software process of the wearable robot. In addition, it operates using TCP-socket-based monitoring on an on-demand basis only.
