From the Foreword:
"…the presentation of real-time scheduling is probably the best in terms of clarity I have ever read in the professional literature. Easy to understand, which is important for busy professionals keen to acquire (or refresh) new knowledge without being bogged down in a convoluted narrative and an excessive detail overload. The authors managed to largely avoid theoretical-only presentation of the subject, which frequently affects books on operating systems.
… an indispensable [resource] to gain a thorough understanding of the real-time systems from the operating systems perspective, and to stay up to date with the recent trends and actual developments of the open-source real-time operating systems."
―Richard Zurawski, ISA Group, San Francisco, California, USA
Real-time embedded systems are integral to the global technological and social space, but references still rarely offer professionals the sufficient mix of theory and practical examples required to meet intensive economic, safety, and other demands on system development. Similarly, instructors have lacked a resource to help students fully understand the field. The information was out there, though often at the abstract level, fragmented and scattered throughout literature from different engineering disciplines and computing sciences.
Accounting for readers’ varying practical needs and experience levels, Real Time Embedded Systems: Open-Source Operating Systems Perspective offers a holistic overview from the operating-systems perspective. It provides a long-awaited reference on real-time operating systems and their almost boundless application potential in the embedded system domain.
Balancing the already abundant coverage of operating systems with the largely ignored real-time aspects, or "physicality," the authors analyze several realistic case studies to introduce vital theoretical material. They also discuss popular open-source operating systems―Linux and FreRTOS, in particular―to help embedded-system designers identify the benefits and weaknesses in deciding whether or not to adopt more traditional, less powerful, techniques for a project.
商品描述(中文翻譯)
從前言：
「……即時排程的呈現方式在清晰度上可能是我在專業文獻中讀過的最佳範例。易於理解，這對於忙碌的專業人士來說非常重要，他們渴望獲取（或更新）新知識，而不會被繁瑣的敘述和過多的細節所困擾。作者成功地避免了僅僅理論性的呈現，這常常影響到有關作業系統的書籍。
……這是從作業系統的角度深入理解即時系統的不可或缺的資源，並且能夠跟上開源即時作業系統的最新趨勢和實際發展。」
―Richard Zurawski, ISA Group, 美國加州舊金山
即時嵌入式系統在全球技術和社會空間中是不可或缺的，但參考資料仍然很少能為專業人士提供滿足系統開發在經濟、安全及其他需求上的理論與實際範例的充分結合。同樣，教師也缺乏資源來幫助學生全面理解這個領域。雖然相關資訊存在，但往往處於抽象層面，且在不同工程學科和計算科學的文獻中零散分布。
考慮到讀者不同的實際需求和經驗水平，《即時嵌入式系統：開源作業系統的視角》提供了從作業系統的角度出發的整體概述。它提供了一個期待已久的即時作業系統參考資料，以及它們在嵌入式系統領域幾乎無限的應用潛力。
在已經豐富的作業系統覆蓋範圍與被大多數人忽視的即時性或「物理性」之間取得平衡，作者分析了幾個現實的案例研究，以介紹重要的理論材料。他們還討論了流行的開源作業系統，特別是Linux和FreRTOS，以幫助嵌入式系統設計師識別在決定是否採用更傳統、較不強大的技術時的優勢和劣勢。
