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 ...

Embedded systems are deemed real-time if they will suffer a failure when a critical system event cannot be serviced in the required time, and for many embedded systems this time limit is very short.

An increasing number of multi-threaded embedded applications want to leverage multicore designs. Symmetric Multiprocessing (SMP) RTOS provides automatic load balancing of multiple threads in a ...
