I just re-read µC/OS-III – The Real-Time Kernel by Jean Labrosse, which – I believe – provides a fantastic introduction to Real-Time Operating Systems. Now, just to make sure we're all tap-dancing to ...

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

Industrial internet of things applications, like connected farms, are a big part of Microsoft’s cloud computing strategy. (Microsoft Photo) The devices that make up the internet of things require a ...

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 ...

During the next few years, the technology needed to meet NextGen requirements will be added to aircraft cockpits already bristling with advanced systems. As it is doing now for many safety-critical ...

As military and civil aircraft add more capable and connected technologies, real-time operating system (RTOS) developers are facing growing security concerns and challenging certification issues. Key ...
