Linux OK ™ (Linux Optimization Kit)
Many embedded developers use Linux in their projects. However, some developers are feeling additional pressure to get a performance increase from their embedded Linux operating system. To achieve this additional performance means that they will need to dig into the Linux operating system code, which could be disastrous.
MapuSoft’s Linux OK (Linux Optimization Kit) framework provides several options for Linux users to achieve higher performance, without making major changes to the kernel. Linux OK utilizes OS Changer, OS Abstractor and OS PAL tools specifically optimized for Linux target OS platform.
