ISBN: 9798175322614 - understanding real-time operating systems architecture: a practical guide to scheduling, interrupts, kernel design, and task management for embedded and safety-critical systems. (5 risultati)

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. Every embedded system eventually faces the same unforgiving truth: correct logic means nothing if it arrives late. As multi-core processors, IoT devices, and safety-critical regulations reshape modern engineering, real-time operating systems have become the invisible backbone of automotive control units, medical devices, industrial automation, and aerospace systems. Understanding how an RTOS schedules tasks, handles interrupts, and manages memory isn't optional knowledge anymore, it's the line between a hobbyist project and a certifiable, production-grade product. This book distills real-time systems engineering into a rigorous, vendor-neutral framework grounded in proven scheduling theory, Rate Monotonic Scheduling, Earliest Deadline First, and the mathematics behind the Liu & Layland utilization bound, alongside decades of hard-won kernel design practice. Every concept is explained through the lens of deterministic, testable, and safety-conscious architecture, the same standards applied in safety-critical medical and industrial system design. Understanding Real-Time Operating Systems takes engineers from first principles to advanced kernel mechanics without tying the reader to a single vendor's toolchain. Beginning with what "real-time" truly means and why hard, firm, and soft real-time systems demand different design philosophies, the book builds systematically through kernel architecture, task and thread management, scheduling algorithms, interrupt latency, synchronization primitives, priority inversion, memory management, and the foundational principles of fault-tolerant, safety-critical design. Written for embedded engineers, computer science students, and systems architects, it bridges the gap between academic scheduling theory and the deterministic engineering discipline real-world systems demand. What's Inside: Real-time classification: hard, firm, and soft systems, and how to choose the right model for your designRTOS kernel architecture: monolithic, microkernel, and hypervisor-based models comparedTask and thread management, context switching, and preemptive vs. cooperative multitaskingScheduling theory: Rate Monotonic Scheduling, Earliest Deadline First, and schedulability analysisWorst-case execution time (WCET) estimation and timing verification techniquesInterrupt handling, dispatch latency, and nested interrupt managementSynchronization primitives: semaphores, mutexes, message queues, and event flagsPriority inversion, priority inheritance, and priority ceiling protocolsMemory management for deterministic systems: static allocation, memory pools, and stack protectionReliability, redundancy, and safety-critical design foundationsA complete glossary of RTOS terminology and quick-reference tables for scheduling formulas and latency benchmarks If you're ready to stop guessing at timing behavior and start engineering systems that are provably deterministic, this book is your foundation.
