The book describes the design and implementation of the MicroC/OS-II real-time operating system (RTOS). In addition to its value as a reference to the kernel, it is an extremely detailed and highly readable design study that is useful to the embedded systems student. In addition to documenting the design and implementation of the kernel, it also walks the reader through the many related development issues: how to adapt the kernel for a new microprocessor, how to install the kernel, and how to structure the applications that run on the kernel. This latest edition features documentation for several important new features, including new real-time services, floating points, and coding conventions.
