Real Time Operating System Characteristics Introduction Real-time operating systems or RTOS are an important class of operating systems. Like all operating systems, RTOS can be examined from a variety of perspectives, including theory and actual implementation. An RTOS is defined as...: "...the one in which the correctness of the computations not only depends upon the logical correctness of the computation but also upon the time at which the result is produced. If the timing constraints …

…many cases even systems that don't. The uniqueness and beauty of its architecture make it stand apart from most other operating systems. Its strict modularity also lends itself to the increasing object oriented trend in computer science. And this is all done with the efficiency and reliability of being done in a real time environment. I believe that because of its flexibility, QNX model will be adapted by other real-time operating systems in the future.
