Abstract

The hybrid operating system approach which is to combine a general-purpose operating system with a real-time operating system is a promising approach to satisfy the real-time property, which is usually required for embedded systems. This paper describes a hybrid operating system architecture called ``Linux on ITRON,'' which is a combination of Linux and a real-time kernel based on the $\mu$ITRON Specification. A problem raised in the design of ``Linux on ITRON'' and its solutions are also discussed.
