This book puts the spotlight on how a real-time kernel works. Using
Micrium's C/OS-III as a reference, the book consists of two
complete parts. The first describes real-time kernels in generic
terms. Part II provides examples to the reader, using
STMicroelectronics' STM32F107 microcontroller, based on the popular
ARM Cortex-M3 architecture. A companion evaluation board ***NOT
INCLUDED, but available through Micrium*** ( C/Eval-STM32F107), and
tools (IAR Systems Embedded Workbench for ARM), enable the reader
to be up and running quickly, and have an amazing hands-on
experience, leading to a high level of proficiency. This book is
written for serious embedded systems programmers, consultants,
hobbyists, and students interested in understanding the inner
workings of a real-time kernel. C/OS-III is not just a great
learning platform, but also a full commercial-grade software
package, ready to be part of a wide range of products. C/OS-III is
a highly portable, ROMable, scalable, preemptive real-time,
multitasking kernel designed specifically to address the demanding
requirements of today's embedded systems. C/OS-III is the successor
to the highly popular C/OS-II real-time kernel but can use most of
C/OS-II's ports with minor modifications. Some of the features of
C/OS-III are: Preemptive multitasking with round-robin scheduling
of tasks at the same priority Supports an unlimited number of tasks
and other kernel objects Rich set of services: semaphores, mutual
exclusion semaphores with full priority inheritance, event flags,
message queues, timers, fixed-size memory block management, and
more Built-in performance measurements About the Author Jean
Labrosse founded Micrium in 1999. He is a regular speaker at the
Embedded Systems Conference in Boston and Silicon Valley, and other
industry conferences. Author of two definitive books on embedded
design: MicroC/OS-II, The Real-Time Kernel and Embedded Systems
Building Blocks, Complete and Ready-to-Use Modules in C, he holds
BSEE and MSEE from the University of Sherbrooke, Quebec, Canada.
