I have finished reading the freertos book and it was great.&nbsp; Now i have to learn how to use it effectively.&nbsp; Currently I am developing a new engine controller and I just don’t know how to start.&nbsp;

Are there any good references on system design using an RTOS or freeRTOS specifically?&nbsp; I seem to be able to find tons of information on what a RTOS is, how a RTOS works, and even how to make your own RTOS.

Any help would be appreciated!

A sort of “RTOS Design Patterns” book would be neat. Agreed.
