As I am on vacation, I thought that I would invite colleagues to provide a guest blog and Faheem Sheikh came up with the goods …
Multicore embedded designs are becoming increasingly common – a topic that I have addressed before. This presents some new challenges to software developers. Faheem was talking to an existing user of our Nucleus RTOS, who is considering a multicore design and, … Read More
