This course aims to teach you how to develop programs for OS based embedded systems that are increasingly been used in many modern embedded systems, ranging from handphones to automotive applications.
In this course, you will first learn about the process of developing multitasking programs for embedded systems based on RTOS, its features and its performance metric. You will then learn the programming techniques used in Linux based systems, ranging from the use of toolchain (GCC, Makefile and Linker Script), concurrent programming techniques (IPC, multitasking and multithreading), kernel modules development and its booting process.
