Real-time and embedded systems operate in constrained environments in which memory and processing power are limited. They must provide their services within strict time deadlines to their users and to ...

A kernel can be defined as the essential center of an operating system. The kernel is the core of an operating system that provides a set of basic services for the other parts of the operating system.

Real-time operating system kernels in embedded systems need to be configurable. Unfortunately many of today's commercial real-time kernels are monolithic. These optimized code packages are difficult ...

This fifth lesson on RTOS finally addresses the real-time aspect of the “Real-Time Operating System” name. Specifically, in the video lesson 26, you add a preemptive, priority-based scheduler to the ...

It’s easy to forget that embedded Linux can’t do everything for all embedded developers. While it is suitable for some applications with many megabytes of memory and powerful processors, there are a ...

Operating systems constitute the central software layer that governs computer hardware and provides foundational services for all other programmes. Evolving from simple batch-processing systems of the ...

You can find real-time operating systems (RTOS) everywhere. They are as ubiquitous as their more familiar operating-system cousins – Windows, Mac OS and Unix – that control software applications and ...
