Linux Embedded Systems Your complete guide to developing embedded Linux systems Lastly, if you're new to embedded development, here's some more good news: it's just more fun than other types of software engineering.

Topics such as minimizing boot time and reducing resource requirements of Linux receive special treatment. It explains how a system boots so that you can make it faster for your application, how to build the basic set of software to boot a board, how to configure and build the kernel, and how to be a good citizen when participating in open source projects. That's great news for you as the developer, because this level of 'out of the box' support for Linux on many new devices means that you can often skip getting Linux running on the board, and go straight to the most interesting parts of your application development! This book focuses on the systems and application level tasks that every embedded engineer must tackle once Linux is up and running in order to deliver a product. You'll soon discover that embedded development is no longer the province of just C and assembler! Linux is becoming a common default choice for new embedded commercial projects, with hardware vendors providing board-level support for Linux by default. And that's not just the development tools, such as Eclipse or your favorite editor, but also the languages you already know. While you probably have plenty of knowledge about Linux on enterprise servers and desktops, I'll show you how you can in fact use that same set of skills, and the same tools to you already know, to create embedded projects in Linux. So in this book I'll reveal them so you can see for yourself how to use Linux and open source software to deliver an embedded device. The tools that you need to succeed with your next embedded Linux project are hiding in plain sight. US $49.99 Shelve in: Linux User level: Intermediate–Advanced
