The number of mentions indicates the total number of mentions that we've tracked plus the number of user suggested alternatives.
Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Contiki – OS for networked, memory-constrained systems
For my master thesis, 15 years ago, I was working with motes (the component of wireless sensor network) to create a new authentication algorithm and we use Contiki and TinyOS (https://github.com/tinyos/tinyos-main). I am glad to hear that Contiki it's still alive, it was more complex than TinyOS, but also more features rich.

Contiki – OS for networked, memory-constrained systems
The magic source of Contiki is IMHO the use of protothreads as a lightweight concurrency system. Protothreads can also be used to implement synchronous programming models - like this one: https://github.com/frameworklabs/proto_activities

Blech: A language for developing reactive, real-time critical embedded software
I created two „offsprings“ of Blech:
1. A C based lib using protothreads: https://github.com/frameworklabs/proto_activities
2. A Swift DSL:

Multitasking to Arduino
Synchronous programming is also a good choice IMHO to handle multiple concurrent activities in a simple way on an embedded system.
