Embedded Software Development with eCos

The Embedded Configurable Operating System (eCos) gives professionals a low-cost, royalty-free embedded software development solution that works in highly constrained hardware environments, while scaling smoothly to larger products.

This book is the first complete guide to building solutions with this flexible, low-cost, royalty-free embedded software development platform (eCos). Author Anthony J. Massa covers eCos architecture, installation, configuration, coding, deployment, and the entire eCos development platform, including support components. Extensive code examples and a full application case study demonstrate every key programming concept, including exceptions, interrupts, virtual vectors, threads, synchronization, networking, Web connectivity, debug/bootstrap, and even porting eCos to new hardware.
