Hello.

> What is ITRONv4????

ITRONv4 is version 4 of the ITRON standard, which is an open-specification real time kernel standard. ITRONv4 was defined by an industry consortium and has been deployed worldwide since the 1980s by many vendors in diverse applications from consumer electronics to industrial automation. Some studies say that more than a billion ITRON-enabled devices have been shipped into the market.

PrKERNELv4 conforms to this standard. The benefit for you as a user is that you can take advantage of this proven and widely used technology in your application. Combined with the full source code, this will give you [1] full control, [2] a robust, determistic kernel and [3] defacto standard technology instead of a proprietary kernel.

Hope this helps.
