Memory and Low-level Functions
This chapter describes the low-level functions found in the DSP/BIOS real-
time multitasking kernel. These functions are embodied in three software
modules: MEM, which manages allocation of memory; SYS, which provides
miscellaneous system services; and QUE, which manages queues.
This chapter also presents several simple example programs that use these
modules. The system primitives are described in greater detail in Chapter 1,
in the TMS320 DSP/BIOS API Reference Guide for your platform.
