Real-Time Embedded Multithreading contains the fundamentals of developing real-time operating systems and multithreading with all the new functionality of ThreadX Version 5. This MIPS edition covers all the new ThreadX 5 features including Real-Time Event-Chaining, Run-Time Performance Metrics, and Run-Time Statck Analysis as specified for MIPS. ThreadX has been deployed in approximately 500 million devices worldwide including cell phones, digital cameras, and laser printers. General concepts and terminology are detailed along with problem solving of common pitfalls. The features and services of ThreadX are reviewed. The book is technology agnostic and applicable to all types of microprocessors.
*A great introduction to real-time systems including general concepts and terminology*An insider shares his knowledge on ThreadX 5, a real-time operating system*A limited version of the ThreadX 5 software is packaged on a CD-ROM with the bookto run all sample projects and the case study

This second edition of Real-Time Embedded Multithreading contains the fundamentals of developing real-time operating systems and multithreading with all the new functionality of ThreadX Version 5. ThreadX has been deployed in approximately 500 million devices worldwide. General concepts and terminology are detailed along with problem solving of common pitfalls and problems. The features and services of ThreadX are reviewed. The references to a specific processor have been removed to allow for the book to be technology agnostic and applicable to all types of microprocessors that the reader may be working with. Two e-book supplements will be available with registration of your book at www.newnespress.com, the first on ARM processors and the second, ColdFire processors.

Helps you use the industry's most popular RTOS/processor combination to develop embedded applications that are small, fast, reliable, and deterministic. Beginning with a discussion of embedded and real-time concepts and terminology, this book uses a specific demon.

Get up to speed with the ThreadX 5 real time operating system - deployed in over 500 million devices worldwide including cell phones, digitial cameras, and laser printers!

A complete guide for the developer or student, this text provides an overview of general concepts and terminology, investigates the salient features of the reference processor, thoroughly explores the services and features of the reference RTOS, and culminates with a major case study. Perfect for embedded systems programmers, software engineers, electrical engineers, or firmware engineers with a programming background in C or C++.
