Real-Time Enhancements for TimeSys Linux/RT

TimeSys Corporationporation has announced the immediate availability of critical real-time features in TimeSys Linux/RT 1.1, a real-time version of the Linux Operating System.

TimeSys Linux/RT is the first complete and open-source solution to extend the Linux kernel to provide predictable real-time response at the Linux application layer, thus offering the benefits of native device drivers and applications.

Additional features include priority inheritance support with the kernel; TimeTracer support for detailed visualization of operating system internal events; and Rate-Monotonic Analysis-based (RMA) mathematical analysis and simulation of real-time architectures via TimeWiz.

Priority inheritance avoids the unbounded priority inversion problem that frequently occurs in real-time system designs, and which leads to timing glitches in fielded products.
