+  abstract: >
+    As the Internet of Things (IoT) emerges, compact operating systems (OSs) are
+    required on low-end devices to ease development and portability of IoT
+    applications. RIOT is a prominent free and open source OS in this space. In
+    this paper, we provide the first comprehensive overview of RIOT. We cover
+    the key components of interest to potential developers and users: the
+    kernel, hardware abstraction, and software modularity, both conceptually and
+    in practice for various example configurations. We explain operational
+    aspects like system boot-up, timers, power management, and the use of
+    networking. Finally, the relevant APIs as exposed by the OS are discussed
+    along with the larger ecosystem around RIOT, including development and open
+    source community aspects.
