Five technical articles about Linux development tools, boards, and best practices have been published by BEC Systems, a small embedded systems consulting company specializing in technology selection, troubleshooting, development, and training. The articles were authored by BEC owner Cliff Brake (pictured).

Specific topics include:

• Review of the CompuLab CM-x270 (pictured at right), a very small processor module based on an Intel PXA270 processor — Story
• Introduction to the OpenEmbedded development environment, including “why to use it [and] how it works”– Story
• Remote access for embedded systems behind a firewall, via SSH, with no VPN or special network setup — Story
• How to build custom GNU/Linux distributions for x86 — Story

  

• Review of the Moxa UC7408 (pictured at right), a small fanless industrial computer that runs Linux or Windows CE — Story

Brake also recently wrote a whitepaper, published here at LinuxDevices.com, on planning an embedded Linux project.
