Hello,

I am a student of Masters in Mechatronics by IFSC (Federal Institute of Science and Technology).

My research includes testing different RTOS (hard and soft) in order to determine which best responds to certain events of mechatronic systems and give a comparative result of these activities and performance time control and supervision.

The ideia is to load in the same hardware these compatibles RTOS. The plataform is the Kit Luminary lm3s8962(Stellaris Arm Cortex - Texas) and after make the tests.

My doubt is whether the license of the RTOS that you develop, and allows comparative study such as this survey will become part of the library and maybe future projects with public access.

Best Regards,
Gustavo Pasqualini

License information can be found here:
http://ecos.sourceware.org/license-overview.html

eCos is Free software, and you can certainly use it for comparative
studies with public access. The restrictions from the license are there to
ensure it stays Free, so that if you distribute something which contains
eCos, then whoever receives it has the right to get the eCos source code
used, that's all.

Hope this helps,
