The best part about real-time OS (RTOS) availability in 2024 is that we developers are positively spoiled for choice, but as a corollary this also makes it a complete pain to determine what the opt… ...

One example of real-time operating systems in use today is VxWorks, which is used in NASA's Mars rovers to guide them, and in the Boeing 787 Dreamliner aircraft to control avionics systems ...

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 ...

This fifth lesson on RTOS finally addresses the real-time aspect of the “Real-Time Operating System” name. Specifically, in the video lesson 26, you add a preemptive, priority-based scheduler to the ...
