Operating System Design and Implementation for IoT
Tinkertoy
Tinkertoy is a set of modular operating systems components from which one can assemble a custom IoT system.
Overview
Commodity general-purpose operating systems provide rich features but are not suitable for tiny IoT devices that have limited energy and computing resources. Tinkertoy is a framework that allows developers to build their own special-purpose operating systems for IoT. It provides a collection of standard, widely available OS components. Individual components interact with each other through a carefully specified interface so that developers can assemble an operating system carefully designed to suit applicatoin needs.
