Basics on the EPOC operating system

A true 32-bit OS written in C++, Symbian OS is designed to be hardware-independent and can be ported across different processors and integrated into a range of device makes and models, such as phones, PDAs, communicators and PCs. Symbian OS is designed to support interactive rather than procedural software with its reliance on threads and processes, enabling developers to think in terms of interactions and intuitive behavior. This whitepaper from Forum Nokia helps you understand Symbian from the ground up. (from Forum Nokia)
