Abstract

In this paper, the real time performance of Embedded Linux is analyzed using the ARM11 based S3C6410 mobile processor. The performance of Embedded Linux is compared with that of Windows Embedded CE 6.0 which is frequently used in mobile devices. Both Embedded Linux and Windows Embedded CE 6.0 are ported to the same hardware evaluation platform that uses S3C6410. Performance tests such as interrupt delay, priority based multi-process evaluation, and inter-process communication (IPC) are carried out in order to determine which OS is able to handle real-time data more efficiently in an embedded system environment.
