Embedded Linux - Ready for Real-Time

Tags:
linux server os

Overview Embedded Linux is upsetting the established order in the development tools marketplace. Developers are choosing Linux over traditional proprietary RTOS products for its superior reliability, for its cost effectiveness, and for its open source and standard APIs. After almost 20 years of using products like VRTX, pSOS, and VxWorks, developers are eager to embrace Linux, but express reservations about its ability to address real-time performance requirements. This paper responds to such concerns about Linux performance, questioning some basic assumptions about embedded and real-time, and describing how Linux can be applied to solve a variety of real-time problems.
