Can anybody please provide me the names of some popular and freely available RTOS's for PIC mcu's ?

Please, tell me the best open source RTOS and target micro-controller in use today, in your opinion and why do you think that combination is the best ?

thanks in advance,
agnivesh.

ppts on rtos

This web site presents PICOS18, an operating system based on OSEK/VDX, an open industry standard. The OSEK standard is well suited for the low computing, power, small memory embedded controllers used in automotive or robotique applications.

or
µC/OS-II, The Real-Time Kernel

Enjoy

freertos ecos uc/os

µC/OS-II is better because the developer's book is so popular, many fans have port the µC/OS-II to various platforms. the more developer, the more supporter.

google open-source rtos

FreeRtos has an AVR Port

With regard to the Basic components , you would probably want to check out the Flash and especially the Ram requirements.

I seem to remember there is a table for the AVR on the FreeRtos site.
