I understood the process of the operating system and how do we link all factors together information of network as well so now I have an obvious and full picture about what is going on these computers how they communicate with each others ultimately gained knowledge about the most important operating system which is Linux and how do we implement our own embedded Linux

Course - Introduction to Embedded Linux (Hands-on training)
The content. This was very new for me so learned a lot.
Juan Castro - iVolve
Course - Introduction to Embedded Linux (Hands-on training)
I thought the content (both theory and practical) was excellent, and exactly what we were wanting/expecting. The exercises were challenging but achievable.
