1.34 Windows CE
Microsoft® Windows CE is an operating system designed for a wide variety of embedded systems | 1 |
and products, from hand-held PCs and consumer electronic devices to specialized industrial con- |
trollers and embedded communications devices. The Windows CE operating system has proved itself capable of handling the most demanding 32-bit embedded applications by bringing the full power of the Microsoft's 32-bit programming and operating systems technology to the embed- ded systems designer. Windows CE is actually a collection of operating system modules and com- ponents that can be selected and configured to meet the needs of a specific embedded applica- tion or product.
1.35 VxWorks
WindRiver’s run-time system solution is a high-performance RTOS with a scalable microkernel and sophisticated networking facilities - like TCP/IP networking across various media.
The open architecture provides efficient support of PC-based architectures. Flexible, intertask com- munication, μs interrupt handling, POSIX 1003.1b real-time extensions, fast and flexible I/O sys- tem etc. are some of the many key features.
1.36 OS-9 x86
Microware’s real-time operating system has a track record that has been proved in the industrial/ embedded market and has continued to provide reliable intelligence to sophisticated applica- tions. OS-9 x86’s flexibility, modularity and reliability in conjunction with a rich driver structure allow its use in I/O intensive applications.
1.37 QNX
This solution ports the Win32 API to a QNX kernel. The Win32 API aims to define a standard for developing open systems applications that are optimized to run on ‘Wintel’ platforms. This oper- ating system evolves around a small microkernel RTOS that produces a protected-mode, POSIX- certified API. Being fully modular and scalable, this technology creates the smallest footprint that is beneficial to high-end server applications.
1.38 Jbed
Esmertec’s Jbed is a new generation of real-time operating system. Java-based innovation provides unprecedented safety and ease of use without compromising resource efficiency (native processor speed) or hard real-time performance. In addition, advanced features are implemented such as modularity, hot updates, deadline-driven scheduling admission testing as well as a fast and pro- ductive cross-development.
