In this fourth lesson in the Real-Time Operating System (RTOS) series, you’ll see how to replace the horribly inefficient polling delay with efficient thread blocking. Specifically, in this lesson 25, ...

Issues with proprietary RTOS APIs. How does the POSIX pthread API stack up against proprietary APIs? Thread creation in POSIX. However, each proprietary API impedes embedded development by requiring ...

In this first video lesson on RTOS, you will see how to extend the foreground/background architecture from the previous lesson, so that you can have multiple background loops running seemingly ...

In this second lesson on RTOS you will see how to automate the context switch process. Specifically, in this lesson, you will start building your own minimal RTOS that will implement the manual ...

In general, an RTOS can be used anywhere a non-RTOS is employed. However, it’s rare to find an operating system with a matching RTOS that has exactly the same application programming interface (API).

To find the RTOS with the best real-time performance, you've got to do an apples-to-apples comparison. Developers are making embedded systems applications more complex, not only because they can, but ...

Linux has become well-established in the world of embedded design, but there are often reservations about its real-time performance. There are significant advantages to using Linux. A careful analysis ...

Mangaluru: A team of undergraduate students from the department of electronics and communication engineering (ECE) at the ...
