When do you need to use a real-time operating system (RTOS) for an embedded project? What does it bring to the table, and what are the costs? Fortunately there are strict technical definitions, which ...

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 ...

Modern DSP applications must respond quickly to many external events, be able to prioritize processing, and perform many tasks at once. These complex applications are also changing rapidly over time, ...

A real-time system must respect time constraints to ensure that its execution makes functional sense. It must be deterministic, ensuring the execution of system processes a priori. After analyzing the ...

To find the RTOS with the best real-time performance, you've got to do an apples-to-apples comparison. Developers are making embedded systems applications more complex, not only because they can, but ...
