This paper presents a survey of several major EMBEDDED OPERATING SYSTEMS. Normally an A Embedded Operating System is an operating system for embedded computer systems. These operating systems are designed to be very compact and efficient, forsaking many functions that non-embedded computer operating systems provide, and which may not be used by the specialized applications they run. They are frequently also real-time operating systems.
Examples of embedded operating systems could include the software used in Automated Teller Machines (ATM’s), Cash Registers, CCTV systems, TV Box Set, GPS, Jukeboxes, etc. It analyzes several design issues of EMBEDDED OPERATING SYSTEMS, such as Advantages, Architecture, Memory Management, Inter Process Communication’s, Process Management, Network Support, and the Impact of Hardware Limitation and Application requirement of Embedded System. We analyzed three prevailing Embedded Operating systems: Windows XP Embedded (XPe) Operating System Windows CE operating System, and Embedded Linux.
