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 ...

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, ...

In the beginning, real-time operating systems (RTOSs) were primarily used in military, aerospace, and high-end industrial control applications. This has changed dramatically as low-cost, fast, and ...

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 ...

Embedded systems have been around for several decades. In that time, they evolved from basic stand-alone systems to become highly connected, and capable of performing complex processing tasks in what ...

Zephyr RTOS is going to take over the world. It might have already done so; you don’t realize it yet. That’s just the thing about overnight success. It’s never overnight. It’s a slow burn that ...

The embedded real-time operating system (RTOS) market is suddenly very popular, after years of being kind of obscure in the overall high-tech space. In recent months RTOS providers, who for many years ...

Real-Time Operating Systems (RTOS) are increasingly being used in safety-critical applications such as medical technology, the automotive industry, and aerospace. This raises the growing question of ...
