Developing Open-Source Software RTOS with Functional Safety in Mind

Explore the challenges and solutions for developing open-source software Real-Time Operating Systems (RTOS) with functional safety considerations in this conference talk by Anas Nashif from Intel. Delve into the perceived incompatibility between open-source development and functional safety requirements, and discover how the Zephyr project is pioneering a new approach. Learn about the implementation of public tools and methodologies that address functional safety foundations, potentially enabling Zephyr's use in safety-critical applications. Gain insights into topics such as safety standards, quality requirements, MISRA challenges, certification approaches, and the regulation of open-source development. Understand the Zephyr Project's features, architecture, and future plans for enhancing safety-oriented development in the open-source RTOS landscape.
