We will be using a DSP processor to do a number of different
tasks. Some of the tasks are DSP-related and some are general purpose
CPU tasks. We are considering using a multi-tasking operating system
for the DSP processor.
We've found two operating systems that look like good candidates:
1) The 'SPOX' operating system from Spectron Microsystems, and
2) The 'Nucleus' operating system from Accelerated Technology.
I checked the recently posted FAQ file (thanks for posting this!),
but there was nothing there about DSP operating systems.
Has anyone used or investigated either of these? I know that
'SPOX' has a DSP math library where 'Nucleus' doesn't, but I'm not sure
how much of that math library I'll be using.
Other than the math library and the price lists, I'm having
trouble seeing what the differences are between these two operating
systems.
According to their brochure, the 'Nucleus' operating system is
also offered for a number of DSP and non-DSP processors. Any comments
on it would be welcome, even if the comments were from experience with a
non-DSP processor.
Any recommendations or comments you may have would be appreciated.
