Green up: Strategies for dynamic power management using embedded Linux
,----[ Quote ]
| Device makers are facing a challenge as
| consumers are demanding full functionality
| in their devices and mobile devices are
| becoming more complex and feature-rich. In
| addition to full functionality, consumers
| want the convenience of long-lasting battery
| life. Unfortunately for device makers, these
| two design goals can only be achieved at the
| expense of one another. As developers are
| being pulled in these two separate
| directions, what can be done to ease their
| pain?

Performance analysis of Linux-based embedded systems: Part 1 - Available tools
,----[ Quote ]
| With the advent of the new computing
| architectures such as multicore processors
| and Intel's Atom in embedded systems,
| developers who want to use the Linux
| operating system are presented with a
| dilemma. On the one hand, in embedded
| applications good performance is essential.
| But at the same time, Linux is becoming
| established as an embedded operating system
| option.

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.
