  2. Streamlines, streaklines, and pathlines - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Streamlines,_streaklines...

    The dashed lines represent contours of the velocity field (streamlines), showing the motion of the whole field at the same time. (See high resolution version.) Solid blue lines and broken grey lines represent the streamlines. The red arrows show the direction and magnitude of the flow velocity. These arrows are tangential to the streamline.

  3. ARINC 653 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ARINC_653

    ARINC 653 (Avionics Application Software Standard Interface) is a software specification for space and time partitioning in safety-critical avionics real-time operating systems (RTOS). It allows the hosting of multiple applications of different software levels on the same hardware in the context of an Integrated Modular Avionics architecture. [1]

  4. Real-time operating system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Real-time_operating_system

    A real-time operating system (RTOS) is an operating system (OS) for real-time computing applications that processes data and events that have critically defined time constraints. An RTOS is distinct from a time-sharing operating system, such as Unix, which manages the sharing of system resources with a scheduler, data buffers, or fixed task ...

    AN/FSQ-32, another early time-sharing system begun; CTSS becomes operational (MIT's Compatible Time-Sharing System for the IBM 7094) JOSS, an interactive time-shared system that did not distinguish between operating system and language; Titan Supervisor, early time-sharing system begun; 1964 Berkeley Timesharing System (for Scientific Data ...

  6. Operating system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operating_system

    A real-time operating system is an operating system that guarantees to process events or data by or at a specific moment in time. Hard real-time systems require exact timing and are common in manufacturing , avionics , military, and other similar uses. [ 28 ]

  7. VxWorks - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VxWorks

    VxWorks is a real-time operating system (or RTOS) developed as proprietary software by Wind River Systems, a subsidiary of Aptiv.First released in 1987, VxWorks is designed for use in embedded systems requiring real-time, deterministic performance and in many cases, safety and security certification for industries such as aerospace, defense, medical devices, industrial equipment, robotics ...

  8. Time-triggered architecture - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time-triggered_architecture

    Time-triggered systems can be viewed as a subset of a more general event-triggered (ET) system architecture (see event-driven programming).. Implementation of an ET system will typically involve use of multiple interrupts, each associated with specific periodic events (such as timer overflows) or aperiodic events (such as the arrival of messages over a communication bus at random points in time).

  9. Scheduling (computing) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scheduling_(computing)

    The scheduler is an operating system module that selects the next jobs to be admitted into the system and the next process to run. Operating systems may feature up to three distinct scheduler types: a long-term scheduler (also known as an admission scheduler or high-level scheduler), a mid-term or medium-term scheduler, and a short-term scheduler.
