For many, real time operating system (RTOS) selection took a sharp turn with the advent of the Linux operating system. Developers, of every kind of device from consumer electronics to set-top boxes, ...

Ironing out recovery time objectives (RTO) and recovery point objectives (RPO) is crucial to balancing what stakeholders want and what it will cost to meet those expectations. When evaluating the ...

Recently introduced multicore-based MCUs have raised the complexity level of embedded system designs. The use of an RTOS, however, provides a framework for multicore that can dramatically reduce time ...

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 ...

If operating systems weren’t so useful, we would not be running them on every single of our desktop systems. In the same vein, embedded operating systems provide similar functionality as these desktop ...

Real-time operating systems (RTOSes) allow medical device manufacturers to improve the performance of their medical devices and ensure they meet regulatory requirements. But choosing whether to use an ...

Electronic products that use a microcontroller have become so complex today that they commonly use a real-time operating system (RTOS). An RTOS can manage low-level resources and time, improving the ...
