Hello and good day, As part of task as an intern at Aeste, I was asked by my supervisor to regularly write blog about the task and the experience here. So, this is it. Ahmad Shaiful Amiruddin bin Taher, born in Marang, Terengganu. Final year student, BE(Hons) candidate from Faculty Read more
Here I am, on the third day of my internship at AESTE, typing away my thoughts and recollections from the past half-week. In the background, the whirring of the air-conditioning and fan accompanies Jason Mraz and James Morrison as they prescribe that everything will be fine (if it’s broken code Read more
During my first week in my company, I was very excited and eager to choose my very own project. However I am very new to the work that I am going to do. I have only very basic experience in C programming, minimal knowledge in assembly language and almost zero Read more
This post presents the sixth and the last phase of porting FreeRTOS for AEMB processor. In the previous post, both interrupt and interrupt handling were implemented to serve the mechanism of the preemptive kernel. Although, things seemed fine and set, yet the kernel failed to work when FreeRTOS tasks were Read more
This post represents the fifth phase of porting FreeRTOS for AEMB processor. The main concern of this phase is to get the FreeRTOS configured to demonstrate the Preemptive Multitasking. By far this phase deals with the following: Setting up the timer to generate the RTOS Tick Handling the RTOS Tick Read more
I’m a final year student from Multimedia University (MMU), currently pursuing Bachelor of Engineering (Honours) in Electronics. As for my first post in AESTE’s blog, I’m sharing my experiences on job application to AESTE, and the work progress thus far. The job application to AESTE involved two stages. The first stage Read more
In the previous post, I wrote about creating a simple FreeRTOS task. However, to demonstrate the FreeRTOS cooperative kernel, more than one task is needed. Basically when starting the FreeRTOS scheduler, an Idle task is automatically created which is an infinite loop so when the kernel starts running, it will Read more
Continuing the series of the posts about my work in porting FreeRTOS for AEMB processor, this represents the third phase of the project which is running a simple FreeRTOS task. In my previous post I mentioned about a problem that I faced during simulating FreeRTOS by using Icarus Verilog. While Read more
In this post, I will explain to you how the simulation of the FreeRTOS kernel was accomplished for AEMB processor. The second phase of porting FreeRTOS for AEMB according to the project plan is simulating the compiled and linked FreeRTOS kernel on top of AEMB hardware. As I mentioned in Read more
Hello world! This is my first week working at AESTE. I am very excited to learn and to produce results within twelve weeks of my internship time-frame. I am a final year electrical and electronics engineering undergraduate student from the National University Of Malaysia (Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia, UKM). I am Read more
