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 ...

The quest for compatibility and portability is a perpetual challenge in embedded systems. While many systems today have adopted real-time operating systems (RTOS), each is unique and different enough ...

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

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).
