IEEE 1003.13-2003 PDF

This standard establishes a set of Realtime and Embedded Environment Profiles based on ISO/IEC 9945:2003 {3}, IEEE Std 1003.26(tm)-2003 {4}, ISO/IEC 14519:2001 {5}, and related standards specifying foundations for realtime applications. It is a revision of the previous IEEE Std 1003.13-1998, which established Realtime Profiles based on ISO/IEC 9945-1:1990, as amended by IEEE Std 1003.1b(tm)-1993, IEEE Std 1003.5b(tm)-1996, and ISO/IEC 9945-2:1993. Both C {2} and Ada {1} language application program interfaces are addressed in this standard. The Application Environment Profiles (AEPs) specified herein are appropriate for the development and execution of realtime or embedded applications using the services and utilities provided by standards called out in this standard. With approval of P1003.1 (the 1003.1 Revision) expected in 2001, the basis upon which the existing (1003.13-1998) and planned (P1003.13a, P1003.13b) profiles depended has changed, and all old and new APIs being profiled are to be found in what will likely become IEEE Std 1003.1-2001. There is substantial embedded/realtime-kernel industry experience with various non-standard variants of all the proposed profiles and their underlying interfaces. Multiple RTOS and RT/Embedded Linux vendors are now claiming compliance (if not conformance) to various 1003.13-1998 profiles. The purpose of 1003.13, and now of the 1003.13 Revision, is to unify this area. Note: The above purpose is semantically identical to the original purpose, except that the original list of IEEE 1003-series standards to be profiled has been replaced by their sole successor, 1003.1-2001, and the 1003.5-series standards (Ada bindings to POSIX) and P1003.26 (Device Control) have been added. These changes also have the effect of including the purpose of both P1003.13a and P1003.13b. Revision Standard - Inactive-Reserved. This standard is part of the POSIX series of standardized profiles for open systems. It defines environment profiles for portable realtime and embedded applications.
