# Resource Manager User Guide

This guide is divided into the following sections:

- Software Overview

## Software Overview

The resource manager provides a common API across all supported platforms for managing platform resources and providing common APIs for working with the PA, QMSS and CPPI subsystems. These APIs are either called from the respective Low Level Drivers or the the NIMU or Platform library and must be implemented by the application.

- The Resource Manager definitions are present in pdk_C####_#_#_#_#/packages/ti/platform/resource_mgr.h header file.
- An example implementation for that is included in the MCSDK demo and example applications in the platform_osal.c and resourcemgr.c source files.
