Though, if you ask me, RIOT's code is far cleaner and more approachable
than that of some other projects.

At least in most cases the API documentation is auto-generated (daily iirc)
from the canonical documentation these days. For everything else the law of
code is still a vicious and cruel ruler ;-).

There are a few papers out there that provide a decent 10,000 foot view (or
3,048 meters, if you prefer).

   - RIOT OS: Towards an OS for the Internet of Things
   
   - RIOT: One OS to Rule Them All in the IoT
   
   - A real-time kernel for wireless sensor networks employed in rescue
   scenarios
   
(paywalled
   unfortunately)
   - Simply RIOT: Teaching and Experimental Research in the Internet of
   Things 

Aside from those you should take a look at the Porting Guide
 on the wiki if you
haven't already. You might also find the API documentation
 useful. Beyond that, someone correct me if I'm
wrong, the canonical documentation can be found in the code itself
.

Hi Adam,

Does RIOT use any memory protected (do not think so since MSP430 and  
PIC do not have any) is it using any hardware specific things ?. I am  
new to RIOT that is why I ask. Is there a good ducument about the  
inner workings of RIOY OS so I can see if there are possible issues  
with MIPS.

even 8-bit Atmels I don't imagine there is much standing in the way of
another incredibly well documented architecture. Though, I've been wrong
before.

I think this will change since microchip is busy with XLP for PIC32.

Hi Oleg,

I do know the MIPS code very good, I am looking for a good e-book or  
normal book about the ARM core. The MIPS code is more powerfull per  
MHz and also has a better architecture. Its only a pitty that the chip  
technology used is less power optimized than most ARM vendors use that  
is why the sleep and powerdown are higher.


I think this will change since microchip is busy with XLP for PIC32.

regards, Paul.

Hi Paul!



Does anyone know if people are porting RIOT-OS to the MIPS platform 
and what is the status ?.


As far as I know noone ever tried porting RIOT to MIPS and I know  
too little about this platform to give any estimate about the  
feasibility/difficulty of this task.


Cheers,
