Description
Linux for Embedded and Real-Time Applications provides a practical introduction to the basics and latest developments in this rapidly evolving technology. This updated edition focuses on a specific ARM-based single board computer as a target for embedded application programming, making it ideal for those new to using Linux in an embedded environment. You'll learn how to set up a simple system and tool chain, use simulation for initial application testing, and explore network, graphics, and Android programming. The book also covers the basics of Open Source, Linux, and the embedded space, as well as configuring and building key components like the Linux kernel, BusyBox, and U-Boot bootloader. With this hands-on introduction, engineers and software developers can quickly get up to speed on embedded Linux, its operation, and its capabilities - including Android. The accompanying tools have been updated with a focus on the author's Embedded Linux Learning Kit.
