How to Start Your Career in System Programming
By Raghu Bharadwaj
If you are a fresher and are really looking for a personally and professionally satisfying career in embedded systems or system level programming then these are the exact skills that you need to get hold of
In order to develop an embedded sstem, without keyboard, or display, need to choose an OS. The system shoudl has ADC, for industrial measurements. It might have a power limit of about 8-12W. But it has everything else, like UART, Ethernet, SD card, file system, TCP/IP.
I need some help with a work of mine, a theoritical one. I need to implement a distributed file system.
I have chosen openAFS because it is open-source.
Now first I have to think of an infrastucture: how many server nodes and client ones should I configure and inlcude in the design of the system to have a medium size system.
What type of network topology.
There are two main types of version control system available: client-server and distributed. There are also local-only systems, such as RCS, which operate on a single machine at a time, but those are very little-used now - it's both easier and more flexible to use a more modern system, even if you're only operating it locally.
Lineo Solutions, Inc. announced Linux-based server and client software enabling remote updates of embedded devices over the web. The SmartU2 for Linux System consists of core management server software called & SmartU2 Manager,& as well as a 100KB & SmartU2 Agent& client that runs on embedded Linux devices, says the company...
My embedded system is for sh4 CPU.
Embedded Linux is hard to define, but at least we know now that Linux pros say Android is not embedded Linux. (See part 1 in this series, Android vs. Embedded Linux and this week’s Q&A with Mentor Graphics’ John Cherry.) That doesn’t mean, however, that Android isn’t useful in some embedded projects.
I am writing a program (client) that gets GPS information by using libgps. I want this program to be simple and interact only with libgps. I have another program that can generate NMEA messages and send it over UDP (on port 1555, for example).
We are currently designing an embedded system, which is based on ARM9 core and Linux. This involves the development of a pair of applications: one intended to run on the embedded system board and the other on smart mobile phones, such as iphone or android phones.
The two applications rely on bluetooth to communicate some control data, which are not as big as voice or video.
