 130 <div class="textblock"><p><a class="anchor" id="mainpage"></a> Modern embedded applications often need to concurrently execute multiple activities such as sensor readings, connectivity, machine-learning algorithms, graphics display and others. A real-time operating system (RTOS) equips users with necessary mechanisms that simplify implementation of complex programs and ensure their reliable operation with deterministic timing.</p>
 131 <p><b>CMSIS-RTOS2</b> specifies a generic RTOS interface over real-time OS kernels running on Arm&reg; Cortex&reg; processor-based devices. Applications and middleware components can <a class="el" href="usingOS2.html">use CMSIS_RTOS2 API</a> for better code reuse and simpler integration in various software ecosystems.</p>
 132 <p>CMSIS-RTOS2 also specifies a standard <a class="el" href="group__CMSIS__RTOS__TickAPI.html">OS Tick interface</a> for use by RTOS kernels. It provides several OS tick implementations for simple kernel porting to different Cortex-M and Cortex-A processors.</p>

 138 Benefits</h1>
 139 <p>CMSIS-RTOS2 provides great benefits to the embedded developers and software vendors:</p>
 140 <ul>
 141 <li>The CMSIS-RTOS2 API covers all common services expected from a modern RTOS kernel for efficient thread management, inter-thread communication, timing control and others. See <a class="el" href="usingOS2.html#rtos2_functionalities">Functionality overview</a> for details.</li>
 142 <li>The unified API increases developers' productivity and reduces learning efforts. It makes the software components reusable across different software stacks.</li>
 143 <li>The API enables use of advanced CPU features by RTOS and application, such as secure/non-secure execution with TrustZone, multi-core operation, access protection with MPU, and others.</li>
 144 <li>The C interface is binary compliant with the <a href="https://github.com/ARM-software/abi-aa/">Application Binary Interface (ABI) for Arm architecture</a> and enables inter-operation between various toolchains.</li>
 145 <li><a class="el" href="rtosValidation.html">RTOS Validation Suite</a> provides a set of tests to verify compatibility to CMSIS-RTOS2 API definitions.</li>
 146 <li>CMSIS-RTOS2 is well adopted by the industry, has many years of continuous improvements and commitment for future developments.</li>
 147 </ul>
 148 <blockquote class="doxtable">

 150 <li>The CMSIS-RTOS2 defines a minimum feature set. It's architecture allows to use advanced vendor-specific features directly as well. </li>
