ME731:  Why and How to Run Linux and an RTOS Side by Side on a Multicore Architecture
INTERMEDIATE LEVEL SESSION
Day 04/29/10
Time 14:45-15:30
Company Express Logic, Inc. - PolyCore Software, Inc.
Abstract We will cover the benefits of using both a full featured operating system such as Linux and a Real Time OS at the same time in a multicore/multiprocessor architecture. We will discuss strategies for using this combination to satisfy complex system requirements, and to take maximum advantage of different types of multicore platforms. You will learn how to quickly test your assumptions and reiterate your design for optimal results. You will see how industry standards, such as the Multicore Association's MCAPI, can help make your solutions portable to a variety of topologies with minimal reprogramming.
