After introducing interrupts and the foreground/background architecture, I am finally ready to tackle the concept of a Real-Time Operating System (RTOS). In this first lesson on RTOS (commonly ...

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 ...

Architecture Analysis and Design Language (AADL) is a standardised modelling language widely used to describe and analyse the architectures of embedded real-time systems. AADL provides a formal ...

Developers rely on the QNX® Neutrino® RTOS to provide a highly reliable, scalable, and high-performance foundation for their embedded products. A true microkernel operating system, the QNX Neutrino ...

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 systems (RTOS) and Linux each bring their own advantages for embedded-systems designers. With an RTOS, designers can build deterministic multi-threaded applications with low memory ...

Embedded system developers have a wide range of operating systems available to them today. Of course, the most straightforward operating system is to have no operating system! However, many systems ...
