Comparison of Contemporary Real Time Operating Systems
ISSN (Online) 2278-1021 IJARCCE ISSN (Print) 2319 5940 International Journal of Advanced Research in Computer and Communication Engineering Vol. 4, Issue 11, November 2015 Comparison of Contemporary Real Time Operating Systems Mr. Sagar Jape1, Mr. Mihir Kulkarni2, Prof.Dipti Pawade3 Student, Bachelors of Engineering, Department of Information Technology, K J Somaiya College of Engineering, Mumbai1,2 Assistant Professor, Department of Information Technology, K J Somaiya College of Engineering, Mumbai3 Abstract: With the advancement in embedded area, importance of real time operating system (RTOS) has been increased to greater extent. Now days for every embedded application low latency, efficient memory utilization and effective scheduling techniques are the basic requirements. Thus in this paper we have attempted to compare some of the real time operating systems. The systems (viz. VxWorks, QNX, Ecos, RTLinux, Windows CE and FreeRTOS) have been selected according to the highest user base criterion. We enlist the peculiar features of the systems with respect to the parameters like scheduling policies, licensing, memory management techniques, etc. and further, compare the selected systems over these parameters. Our effort to formulate the often confused, complex and contradictory pieces of information on contemporary RTOSs into simple, analytical organized structure will provide decisive insights to the reader on the selection process of an RTOS as per his requirements. Keywords:RTOS, VxWorks, QNX, eCOS, RTLinux,Windows CE, FreeRTOS I. INTRODUCTION An operating system (OS) is a set of software that handles designed known as Real Time Operating System (RTOS). computer hardware. Basically it acts as an interface The motive behind RTOS development is to process data between user program and computer hardware. -

Bento Gonçalves, 9500, CP 15064, Porto Alegre CEP: 91501-970, Brazil E-mail: [email protected] Abstract: The development of constrained devices for the internet of things (IoT) presents lots of challenges to software developers who build applications on top of these devices. Many applications in this domain have severe non-functional requirements related to timing properties, which are important concerns that have to be handled. By using real-time operating systems (RTOSs), developers have greater productivity, as they provide native support for real-time properties handling. Some of the key points in the software development for IoT in these constrained devices, like task synchronisation and network communications, are already solved by this provided real-time support. However, different RTOSs offer different degrees of support to the different demanded real-time properties. Observing this aspect, this study presents a set of benchmark tests on the selected open source and proprietary RTOSs focused on the IoT. The benchmark results show that there is no clear winner, as each RTOS performs well at least on some criteria, but general conclusions can be drawn on the suitability of each of them according to their performance evaluation in the obtained results. -

Efficient Scheduling Library for Freertos
DEGREE PROJECT IN INFORMATION AND COMMUNICATION TECHNOLOGY, SECOND CYCLE, 30 CREDITS STOCKHOLM, SWEDEN 2016 Efficient Scheduling Library for FreeRTOS ROBIN KASE KTH ROYAL INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY SCHOOL OF INFORMATION AND COMMUNICATION TECHNOLOGY Efficient Scheduling Library for FreeRTOS ROBIN KASE Master’s Thesis at KTH Information and Communication Technology Supervisor: Kenji Kise (Tokyo Institute of Technology) Examiner: Johnny Öberg (KTH) TRITA-ICT-EX-2016:166 Abstract At present, there is a gap between practical implementations of task scheduling on numerous popular Real-Time Operating Systems (RTOSs) and theoretical real-time scheduling. It is difficult to choose what theoretical real-time scheduling concepts to implement when designing a kernel, as theoretical concepts grow and improve over time. Furthermore, the kernel can be kept simpler when offering only simple fixed priority scheduling policy, as advanced scheduling features often require more com- plex implementation and larger overhead. By offering a real-time scheduling library implemented in user space, the user can choose whether to skip the overhead, or use more advanced theories. At the moment there exists already several scheduling frameworks for FreeRTOS. However, they are either difficult to use, not completely implemented in user space, or not providing various theoretical scheduling policies. An open source scheduling library for FreeRTOS implemented in user space that is user friendly and runs with low overhead, Efficient Scheduling Library (ESFree) is proposed. The proposed scheduling library provides polling server that runs aperiodic and sporadic jobs, dependable timing error detection and handling, Rate-Monotonic Scheduling (RMS), Deadline-Monotonic Scheduling (DMS) and Earliest Deadline First (EDF) scheduling policies to provide theoretical real-time scheduling features to speed up development of complex projects, and make FreeRTOS friendlier to students who have newly studied real-time scheduling. -
OS Selection for Dummies
OS SELECTION HOW TO CHOOSE HOW TO CHOOSE Choosing your OS is the first step, so take the time to consider your choice fully. There are many parameters to take into account: l Is this a new project or the evolution of an existing product? l Using the same SW stack? Re-using existing code? l Is your team familiar with a particular OS? Ø Using an OS you are already comfortable with can help l What are the HW constraints of your system? Ø Some operating systems require more memory/processing power than others l Have no SW team? Not sure about the above? Ø Contact us so we can help you decide!
