Computer World Network Messages "Embedded Linux Alliance" released its first specification standard this Wednesday, where its purpose is to make companies can easily use Linux operating systems in mobile phones, network routers, and other devices. Members of the alliance include Red Hat, Montavista, IBM, and other companies. This specification is designed to ensure that Linux used in "embedded" devices such as mobile phones, karaoke can meet certain criteria, because it is open source software, any organization and individual can modify and re-issue Linux and re-issue. It will cause a chaotic environment to develop Linux-based products. The main Linux publishers provided by Red Hat is a stable product to ensure that companies such as Oracle are smoothly operated on these products. The "Embedded Linux Alliance" plan will help freeze some of the easy-changing Linux technology to provide a stable basis for companies using Linux in the product. For example, if there has been developed network traffic routing software running on Montavista's "embedded" Linux, it is easy to transplant its software to Linux, LynuxWorks. The analyst of the GIGA Information Group said that the specification released by the Embedded Linux Alliance makes the development and deployment of embedded Linux devices more attractive. She said that this makes it run on different devices. Linux software. It's easier. The development of embedded Linux is relatively fast. NEC, Sony has been selling Linux-based consumer electronics products, Motorola plans to use Linux on its future, and IBM also develops Linux on the handset. For years, the "Linux Standard Library" organization has been working on standardization of Linux running on the server. Now, the embedded calculation field has begun. The embedded Linux standard attracts the "Linux standard library" and the beneficial elements in UNIX organizations.
