- Title
Implementation of Task Types in AVR-Ada.
- Authors
de Matos Pedro, André
- Abstract
Ada contains a vast set of features, when supported in the runtime system, allowing a great flexibility for supporting memory management, exception handling, and task assignment in operating systems. Nevertheless, for embedded architectures many runtime features are not officially supported, either due to difficulties in the port, or due to the overheads generated by the runtime library. Therefore, the Zero Footprint approach is usually adopted to constraint Ada into a restricted subset that does not use any runtime feature, which precludes using some of Ada advantages over other languages. This work extends the current runtime library of AVR-Ada to support Ada task types for the AVR platform as have been done for other processor families, and describes an example of its usage using the Arducc board.
