May include but is not limited to: Create initial OS design for given board support package (BSP)/hardware; set the environment variables, build options, and regional settings; manage multiple configurations (e.g., release/debug); identify appropriate catalog items; modify a build configuration to add a new catalog item to OS design |
Configure Windows Embedded CE projects. |
Clone a component. |
Generate a software development kit (SDK).
May include but is not limited to: Create an SDK; configure an SDK; build an SDK |
Manage catalog items.
May include but is not limited to: Integrate an existing driver into a Windows Embedded CE development environment; create a catalog item; verify and correct contents of a catalog file |
Building and Deploying the Runtime Image (9 percent) |
Build the runtime image.
May include but is not limited to: Build from the IDE; build from the command line |
Analyze build results.
May include but is not limited to: Interpret build failures; check build status; identify hidden failures (those not identified by IDE as build failures) |
Deploy the runtime image to target hardware.
May include but is not limited to: Configure Platform Builder options; download operating system to the target hardware; connect to a target hardware |
Performing System Programming (22 percent) |
Monitor and optimize system performance. |
Implement system applications.
May include but is not limited to: Implement control panel applet; launch a custom shell |
Implement threads and thread synchronization. |
Implement exception handling. |
Implement power management at the system level.
May include but is not limited to: Application-level power management; power management scheme; Power Manager configuration |
Debugging and Testing the System (17 percent) |
Detect software-related errors.
May include but is not limited to: Detect driver memory leaks; detect deadlocks; detect race conditions |
Configure the runtime image to enable debugging.
May include but is not limited to: Entire image or individual module; enable profiling in the OEM Abstraction Layer (OAL) |
Test a system by using Microsoft Windows Embedded CE 6.0 Test Kit (CETK).
May include but is not limited to: Use existing CETK tests, including Stress test; create custom tests |
Test a boot loader. |
Customizing a Board Support Package (BSP)(17 percent) |
Configure a BSP.
May include but is not limited to: Modify parameter files (bib, reg, dat files); modify build files |
Add power management support to an OEM Abstraction Layer (OAL). |
Configure memory mapping of a BSP. |
Implement a boot loader from existing libraries. |
Share driver resources between hardware and an OAL.
May include but is not limited to: Shared memory; shared interrupts; shared I/O |
Developing Device Drivers (23 percent) |
Marshall data across boundaries.
May include but is not limited to: Implement a data exchange mechanism between a driver and an application; implement communication between drivers and hardware; load a driver |
Implement an interrupt mechanism in a device driver.
May include but is not limited to: Implement an interrupt service thread (IST); communication between interrupt service routine (ISR) and IST; IRQ vs. SYSINTR; Installable ISR |
Implement a stream interface driver. |
Enhance driver portability.
May include but is not limited to: Package should be hardware-target independent; BUS-agnostic hardware access |
