EchidnaTM: A Real-Time
Operating System to Support Reconfigurable Software on Microcontrollers and Digital Signal Processors
| |
|
Introduction
|
We are creating the EchidnaTM Real-Time
Operating System (RTOS) that supports reconfigurable component-based
software for microcontrollers and digital signal processors (DSPs).
Existing RTOS for these embedded processors are very costly, and they
only provide minimal system functionality. Few modern innovations in
real-time systems and software engineering that we are implementing are
supported. The RTOS is being designed to reduce development time by
improving tools and maximizing portability of modules across both
applications and target platforms, while maintaining the high-performance
and predictability required in a real-time system.
