Features: This book focuses on the core of embedded software—the embedded real-time operating system—with the aim of providing a comprehensive introduction to embedded systems. It enables readers to gain a panoramic understanding of embedded systems and development while also deeply understanding and utilizing embedded real-time operating systems. Additionally, to strengthen the integration of theory and practice, a dedicated experimental system has been developed as a companion to this textbook. The experimental system includes an embedded real-time operating system and integrated development tools, offering a wealth of experimental cases. The book is divided into 9 chapters. Chapters 1–3 introduce embedded hardware and software systems, covering basic concepts, composition, characteristics, classifications, and development trends. Chapters 4–8 focus on embedded real-time kernels, including task management and scheduling, synchronization, mutual exclusion, and communication, interrupt and time management, memory management, and I/O management. Chapter 9 introduces the development of embedded system software, including development models and task partitioning methods. This book can serve as a textbook for undergraduate or graduate students in higher education institutions studying embedded systems, as well as a reference for professionals engaged in embedded system research and development.
