Walls Colin. Embedded RTOS Design: Insights and Implementation

Newnes, 2021. — 382 p. — ISBN 0128228512, 9780128228517.Embedded RTOS Design: Insights and Implementation combines explanations of RTOS concepts with detailed, practical implementation. It gives a detailed description of the implementation of a basic real-time kernel designed to be limited in scope and simple to understand, which could be used for a real design of modest complexity. The kernel features upward-compatibility to a commercial real-time operating system: Nucleus RTOS. Code is provided which can be used without restriction.Gain practical information on:- Scheduling, preemption, and interrupts
- Information flow (queues, semaphores, etc.) and how they work
- Signaling between tasks (signals, events, etc.)
- Memory management (Where does each task get its stack from? What happens if the stack overflows?)
- The CPU context: storage and retrieval after a context switchWith this book you will be able to:- Utilize a basic real-time kernel to develop your own prototype
- Design RTOS features
- Understand the facilities of a commercial RTOS
