Embedded Linux research report ships
,----[ Quote ]
| EDC noted that some 40 percent of the survey's 500 respondents were targeting
| embedded Linux.

|
| Also in the earlier reports, Andrews observed that the need for RTOS source
| code was "one of the reasons that proprietary RTOSes created in-house for a
| specific system have long been popular, and now it's a primary motivating
| factor in the adoption of Embedded Linux."
|
| The now completed survey results are said to include "expert analysis" from
| Ann Thryft, a 20-year industry veteran. The report includes chapters on
| platforms, processors, tools, languages, security, target devices, mobile
| development, and of course, Linux.

Linux rides pillion on Mumbai city buses
,----[ Quote ]
| This triangle of devices in the bus uses ARM9 processors and runs embedded
| Linux using kernel 2.6. Having these Linux-embedded devices, says Satish
| Goriani, consultant to the technology provider Kaizen, drastically reduces
| the transaction time, and the inbuilt services in Linux, such as SSH, make it
| easy to manage them remotely. Forty buses are equipped in this way. The other
| 3,500 in the system use a more low-tech solution: a handheld device that the
| bus conductor uses to debit the smart card.
