1.4.2.2. OSDL: Mobile Linux Initiative

As this book is written, several mobile handsets (cellular phones) are available on the worldwide market that have been built around embedded Linux. It has been widely reported that millions of handsets have been shipped based on Linux. The only certainty is that more are coming. This promises to be one of the most explosive market segments for what was formerly the role of a proprietary real-time operating system. This speaks volumes about the readiness of Linux for commercial embedded applications.

The OSDL sponsors a working group called Mobile Linux Initiative. Its purpose is to accelerate the adoption of Linux on next-generation mobile handsets and other converged voice/data portable devices, according to the OSDL website. The areas of focus for this working group include development tools, I/O and networking, memory management, multimedia, performance, power management, security, and storage.
