The Linux/ARM embedded platform
Abstract
ARM processors are embedded in virtually all mobile consumer electronic devices but mobility has a price: reliance on battery power places limits on the performance, making them less capable than that of desktop computers. Despite this limitation, users of mobile computing devices still expect desktop-class performance. In order to deliver real-time, immersive application performance, embedded system programmers must adopt a performance-driven approach for programming. In other words, programs need not only be functionally correct but must also deliver the highest possible performance.
This chapter introduces ARM processor technology, ARM assembly language, Linux-based software development ...
