  2. 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 ...

  3. Real-time Java - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Real-Time_Java

    Real-time Java is a catch-all term for a combination of technologies that enables programmers to write programs that meet the demands of real-time systems in the Java programming language . Java's sophisticated memory management, native support for threading and concurrency, type safety, and relative simplicity have created a demand for its use ...

  4. Comparison of real-time operating systems - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_real-time...

    Comparison of real-time operating systems. This is a list of real-time operating systems (RTOSs). This is an operating system in which the time taken to process an input stimulus is less than the time lapsed until the next input stimulus of the same type. Mostly Texas Instruments C2800, C5500, C6000 and OMAP DSP cores.

  5. Earliest deadline first scheduling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Earliest_deadline_first...

    Earliest deadline first ( EDF) or least time to go is a dynamic priority scheduling algorithm used in real-time operating systems to place processes in a priority queue. Whenever a scheduling event occurs (task finishes, new task released, etc.) the queue will be searched for the process closest to its deadline.

  6. Asymmetric multiprocessing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asymmetric_multiprocessing

    Asymmetric multiprocessing. An asymmetric multiprocessing ( AMP or ASMP) system is a multiprocessor computer system where not all of the multiple interconnected central processing units (CPUs) are treated equally. For example, a system might allow (either at the hardware or operating system level) only one CPU to execute operating system code ...

  7. Java (software platform) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Java_(software_platform)

    Java Platform, Standard Edition (Java SE) is a computing platform for development and deployment of portable code for desktop and server environments. [16] Java SE was formerly known as Java 2 Platform, Standard Edition (J2SE). The platform uses the Java programming language and is part of the Java software-platform family.

  8. Multithreading (computer architecture) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multithreading_(computer...

    Multithreading (computer architecture) A process with two threads of execution, running on a single processor. In computer architecture, multithreading is the ability of a central processing unit (CPU) (or a single core in a multi-core processor) to provide multiple threads of execution .

  9. Operating system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operating_system

    An operating system ( OS) is system software that manages computer hardware and software resources, and provides common services for computer programs . Time-sharing operating systems schedule tasks for efficient use of the system and may also include accounting software for cost allocation of processor time, mass storage, peripherals, and ...
