Real Time

In former times hard realtime systems needed specialized operating systems where the "normal" standard tools did not run. The RT extentions to Linux let a normal Linux kernel run as the idle task of a small real time system. On such a machine every software running on a normal desktop machine can be used.


Real Time Kernels



FSM Labs

The inventors of the RT Linux kernel.



KURT

The KU Realtime Linux.



RTAI

Realtime Linux Application Interface.



DROPS

"The Dresden Real-Time Operating System". Realtime system based on the L4 microkernel.


Realtime Portal Sites



Realtimelinux.org

Central site for everything related to realtime Linux.



Realtime Linux Foundation

Non Profit Organization for the promotion of all different Realtime Linux flavours.


RT-Distributions



Mini RTL

Realtime Linux on one disk.


Tools



Code Generator

Code Generator consists of a RT-Linux and Comedi based backend in combination with a graphical development tool for signal processing building blocks.



RTIC Lab

Real Time Control Laboratory, a free project which wants to develop a simple to use prototyping tool for automation problems. Basiert auf Gnome.



CarbonKernel

A Realtime Operating System simulator which you can use e.g. for developing drivers for realtime systems in the userspace.



lvrtl

LabVIEW bindigs for realtime Linux (RTL and RTAI). More than 70 virtual instruments let you access realtime FIFOs, shared memory etc. from LabVIEW.



Linux Trace Toolkit

Process and event visualisation. It is possible to visualize the distribution of system ressources to the separate tasks graphically, so you can analyze the load of the system in detail. Works with RTAI.



SimuLinux

Simulink coupling for Realtime Linux



lvlposixio

A project for accessing RT Linux from LabVIEW.



LabVIEW on Linux

An Article from the German Linux Magazin about LabVIEW on Linux (German only). The author has more stuff about this on his homepage.



DSLib

DSLib is a C++ library for real-time dynamic systems simulation with Linux. DSLib's classes implement loops, blocks, inputs, outputs, etc. By creating instances and setting their properties, you can easily define the block diagram of your system. Once you have done this, it automatically generates the C code of the kernel module that implements the system in real-time. So far it only generates code for RTLinux, but a RTAI version is on the way.
