All about embedded Linux
What is Embedded Linux? Currently, we see a dramatic change in the area of embedded systems. On the one side, systems with low computing power get cheaper and more energy efficient. Therefore the number of low power applications with small complexity, small size and low costs is growing. On the other hand, more and more complex tasks are performed by embedded systems with increasing computing power.
The demand for an embedded system With the growing demand for embedded systems to perform more intelligent tasks and to fulfil complex communication requirements in a secure way, the need for larger and more feature rich operating systems arises also for classic control devices. Consequently, Linux is the operating system of choice for more and more embedded devices like electrical power meters, controllers for human-machine interfaces, communication devices and power distribution systems.
