This book is based on project development practice and strives to be practical. It starts with the most basic network communication and gradually discusses the operation of software and hardware. It is divided into chapters based on the actual software development process, so as to guide programmers to start from program planning and gradually build a set of user programs. The CD that accompanies the book provides 12 sets of common module routines under VxWorks and their corresponding Windows debugging programs. All programs are programmed in C or C++, which is easy to get started and highly reusable.

This book is suitable for beginners and intermediate readers, especially for college students majoring in computer science, and scientific research and design personnel engaged in VxWorks development.
