Introduction to the TOPPERS project - open source RTOS for embedded systems -
Hiroaki Takada · 2004
The TOPPERS Project is to develop a series of open source real-time operating systems (RTOS) for embedded systems. The TOPPERS/JSP Kernel, which is the first product of the project, was released two years ago and is started to be used in industries. A technological basis of the TOPPERS Project is the ITRON Specification, which is a de-facto standard real-time kernel specification widely applied to consumer electronics, cellular phones, and other small-scale embedded systems in Japan.
