RTLinux is a hard realtime real-time operating system (RTOS) microkernel that runs the entire Linux operating system as a fully preemptive process. The hard real-time property makes it possible to control robots, data acquisition systems, manufacturing plants, and other time-sensitive instruments and machines from RTLinux applications.
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.
A "hard" real-time operating system (hard RTOS) has less jitter than a "soft" real-time operating system (soft RTOS); a late answer is a wrong answer in a hard RTOS while a late answer is acceptable in a soft RTOS. The chief design goal is not high throughput, but rather a guarantee of a soft or hard performance category.
Some examples of hard real-time systems: A car engine control system is a hard real-time system because a delayed signal may cause engine failure or damage. Medical systems such as heart pacemakers. Even though a pacemaker's task is simple, because of the potential risk to human life, medical systems like these are typically required to undergo ...
ITRON specification is meant for hard real-time embedded RTOS. It is very popular in the embedded market, as there are many applications for it, i.e., devices with the OS embedded inside. For example, there is an ACM Queue interview with Jim Ready, founder of MontaVista (realtime linux company), "Interview with Jim Reddy", April 2003, ACM Queue ...
PikeOS is a commercial hard real-time operating system (RTOS) which features a separation kernel-based hypervisor.This hypervisor supports multiple logical partition types for various operating systems (OS) and applications, each referred to as a GuestOS.
RTEMS is designed for real-time, embedded systems and to support various open application programming interface standards including Portable Operating System Interface and μITRON (dropped in RTEMS 4.10 [2]). The API now known as the Classic RTEMS API was originally based on the Real-Time Executive Interface Definition (RTEID) specification.
RTX / RTX64 are real-time operating system (RTOS) by the firm IntervalZero. They are software extensions that convert Microsoft Windows operating system into a RTOS. [1] It was the first Windows real-time solution on the market. [2]
