RTLinux: An Interview with Victor Yodaiken
RTLinux's main architect gives advice for budding computer scientists. [ACM Crossroads]
Linux, Real-Time Linux, & IPC
When dealing with realtime systems, IPC overhead becomes important; examines two of the best IPC mechanisms available for Linux: FIFO, shared memory. [Dr. Dobb's Journal]
Team Takes Different Path to Real-time Linux
RTLinux doesn't try to change Linux into an RTOS, it instead provides a new RT kernel incorporating Linux as a low-priority thread, so the RTOS stays small, streamlined and keeps Linux as a base for common applications. [EE Times]
Finite State Machine Labs, Inc.: FSMLabs
Makes dual kernel RTLinux and RTCore/BSD, and OpenRTLinux RTOSs, realtime networking, protected memory, XML/RPC controls, embedded Linux developer kit; has RT developer tutorials and white papers; second tier support for Linux product vendors; software development, consulting (embedded, cluster, SMP).
