  2. Grapevine radio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grapevine_radio

    The grapevine systems soon became unneeded, because they primarily served homes that did not have electricity. Once a community received electric service the local grapevine system would soon close down, as the subscribers switched to radio receivers that could receive a wide selection of programs at no cost, instead of the single program and ...

  3. ARINC 653 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ARINC_653

    ARINC 653 (Avionics Application Software Standard Interface) is a software specification for space and time partitioning in safety-critical avionics real-time operating systems (RTOS). It allows the hosting of multiple applications of different software levels on the same hardware in the context of an Integrated Modular Avionics architecture.

  4. TI-RTOS - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TI-RTOS

    TI-RTOS is an embedded tools ecosystem created and offered by Texas Instruments (TI) for use across a range of their embedded system processors. It includes a real-time operating system (RTOS) component-named TI-RTOS Kernel (formerly named SYS/BIOS, which evolved from DSP/BIOS), networking connectivity stacks, power management, file systems, instrumentation, and inter-processor communications ...

  5. Inter-process communication - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inter-process_communication

    Most operating systems Anonymous pipe: A unidirectional data channel using standard input and output. Data written to the write-end of the pipe is buffered by the operating system until it is read from the read-end of the pipe. Two-way communication between processes can be achieved by using two pipes in opposite "directions". All POSIX systems ...

  6. Micro-Controller Operating Systems - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Micro-Controller_Operating...

    Micro-Controller Operating Systems (MicroC/OS, stylized as μC/OS, or Micrium OS) is a real-time operating system (RTOS) designed by Jean J. Labrosse in 1991. It is a priority-based preemptive real-time kernel for microprocessors, written mostly in the programming language C. It is intended for use in embedded systems.

  7. Berkeley sockets - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Berkeley_sockets

    A Berkeley socket is an application programming interface (API) for Internet domain sockets and Unix domain sockets, used for inter-process communication (IPC). It is commonly implemented as a library of linkable modules. It originated with the 4.2BSD Unix operating system, which was released in 1983.

  8. Universal asynchronous receiver-transmitter - Wikipedia

    This was an early example of a medium-scale integrated circuit. Another popular chip was the SCN2651 from the Signetics 2650 family. An example of an early 1980s UART was the National Semiconductor 8250 used in the original IBM PC's Asynchronous Communications Adapter card. [5] In the 1990s, newer UARTs were developed with on-chip buffers.

  9. Handshake (computing) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Handshake_(computing)

    Handshaking can negotiate parameters that are acceptable to equipment and systems at both ends of the communication channel, including information transfer rate, coding alphabet, parity, interrupt procedure, and other protocol or hardware features. Handshaking is a technique of communication between two entities.
