Express Logic provides advanced, high quality software solutions for deeply embedded applications. The company was founded in 1996 by Bill Lamie, who did all of the initial products, including the ...

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 ...

This fifth lesson on RTOS finally addresses the real-time aspect of the “Real-Time Operating System” name. Specifically, in the video lesson 26, you add a preemptive, priority-based scheduler to the ...

The greatest challenge facing embedded system developers is debugging software. Embedded systems have become highly complex, running real-time operating systems, connectivity stacks, USB, and security ...

In this course, students will design and build a microprocessor-based embedded system project managing real-time constraints while analyzing the system in-order to meet them. Students are expected to ...

Interestingly, however, Embedded Research's Stewart points out that interrupts often do more harm than good in real-time systems. Most interrupt-driven systems, in fact, can be converted to one ...

Real-time embedded systems are typically constrained in terms of three system performance criteria: space, time, and energy. The performance requirements are directly translated into constraints ...

Real-time systems and embedded computing have become foundational to modern engineering, underpinning applications from industrial automation and automotive control to aerospace and telecommunications ...

While the GNU/Linux Operating System is gaining popularity in research and student communities as well as in the business world, its impact is still limited for all those application areas requiring ...

The proliferation of multicore processors has done more than provide a boost in processing power to server applications. Multicore chips also pose the opportunity to revolutionize how embedded systems ...
