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, ...
What is a Real-Time Operating System (RTOS), and what does “real-time” mean anyway? What are the various kinds of state machines, and how to code them efficiently in C? What is object-oriented ...
Real-time and embedded systems operate in constrained environments in which memory and processing power are limited. They must provide their services within strict time deadlines to their users and to ...
Electronic products that use a microcontroller have become so complex today that they commonly use a real-time operating system (RTOS). An RTOS can manage low-level resources and time, improving the ...
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 ...
Microsoft has acquired Express Logic, a maker of real-time operating systems for IoT/edge devices for an undisclosed amount. According to Microsoft, Express Logic's ThreadX RTOS is one of the most ...
NATICK, Mass.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--MathWorks today announced key updates to Simulink Real-Time that enhance rapid control prototyping and hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) testing with Model-Based Design. In ...

I posted last week’s question about dynamic memory allocation here and in a group discussion at LinkedIn. There were many thoughtful comments at both locations, with the majority of responses made in ...
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 ...
You can find real-time operating systems (RTOS) everywhere. They are as ubiquitous as their more familiar operating-system cousins – Windows, Mac OS and Unix – that control software applications and ...
