The Linux kernel provides support for memory management, interprocess communication mechanisms, interrupt management, and TCP / IP networking. The directory structure separates architecture-dependent ...

Editor's Note: Embedded Linux has consistently ranked among the top operating systems used in embedded system design. With the rapid growth in interest in the Internet of Things (IoT), the ability of ...

The Linux operating system is set to become the de facto standard for "embedded" devices like robotics, information appliances and automobile information systems, but fragmentation could prove a ...

I first met John Lombardo at the Embedded Internet Conference in August 2000. John told me he was working on a book about embedded Linux, which would be published within a year. In contrast to the ...

Where code meets reality, embedded systems come at that intersection, demanding precision, efficiency, and careful planning.

Real-time operating systems (RTOS) and Linux each bring their own advantages for embedded-systems designers. With an RTOS, designers can build deterministic multi-threaded applications with low memory ...
