Description:
Contiki is an open-source operating system that runs on tiny low-power microcontrollers and makes it possible to develop applications that make efficient use of the hardware while providing standardized low-power wireless communication for a range of hardware platforms.
VMware is one of the best applications for desktop and server virtualization in Linux. With a virtual machine application like VMware, you can run another operating system inside your current operating system.
Installation process a) Download and Install Vmware in ubuntu/ window
Step 1: Install required build packages
• Open a terminal (Ctrl+Alt+T) and use the command below to install the required build packages and Linux Kernel headers:sudo apt install build-essential

chmod +x ~/Downloads/VMware-Player*
And then run the installation file:
sudo ~/Downloads/VMware-Player*
This will open an installation window.
