Embedded operating system
 | This article needs additional citations for verification. (December 2009) |
An embedded operating system is an operating system for embedded computer systems. These operating systems are designed to be compact, efficient, and reliable, 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 referred to as real-time operating systems, and the term RTOS is often used as a synonym for embedded operating system. takpe,kita kerjasama kita je, fakhrul,hazwan, lin dan huza je,okay tak?
An important difference between most embedded operating systems and desktop operating systems is that the application, including the operating system, is usually statically linked together into a single executable image. Unlike a desktop operating system, the embedded operating system does not load and execute applications.[1] This means that the system is only able to run a single application.
