The Exact text provided is: COVER FEATURE: The Linux phenomenon is substantially impacting the world of the enterprise. Not surprisingly, people are starting to consider its implications for embedded systems. This report will examine the initial efforts to move Linux into the embedded arena, both in terms of development platforms and as an embedded OS in its own right. In looking at Linux and embedded systems, we will examine issues of code size, interaction with other RTOSs, the potential for real-time performance, and the implications of the open source model. This would seem a perfect opportunity for at least a sidebar of a column or so on FreeBSD, and the difference in license.
