Users of the next generation of fixed function embedded devices expect the immediate response and rapid boot-up sequences similar to the “always on” features of today’s consumer electronics technology. However, to obtain needed fast start performance, designers must modify or eliminate the typical basic input/output system (BIOS) found on most x86 processor platforms. The normal tasks for the BIOS are to initialize and identify system devices and then locate and execute the bo...Read More
