A hard real-time kernel for Motorola microcontrollers

This paper describes a real-time kernel for running embedded applications on a recent family of Motorola microcontrollers. Both periodic and aperiodic real-time tasks are managed, as well as non real-time tasks. The kernel has been called Yartos, and uses a hard real-time scheduling algorithm based on an EDF approach for the periodic task; aperiodic tasks are executed with a total bandwidth server.
