Among the topics Abbott discusses include memory management, device drivers, interrupt handling, kernel instrumentation, boatloaders, embedded networking, inter-task communications, periodic vs. \"one shot\" timing, POSIX threads, hardware abstraction layers, and program debugging. Abbott uses numerous real-world examples to show how implement a variety of embedded applications using Linux. Abbott discusses the strengths and weaknesses for embedded applications of different implementations of Linux, and he also examines the different real-time extensions for Linux. This book incorporates many programming exercises with solutions. All code listings are provided on the accompanying CD-ROM, as well as an electronic version of the text.  \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e  \u003ci\u003eDoug Abbott\u003c\/i\u003e is founder and president of Intellimetrix, Inc., a computer hardware design firm in Silver City, New Mexico.
