Abstract
This chapter gives examples of systems and platforms for real-time computing, consolidating the matters discussed in the previous chapters. Namely, it discusses: operating systems; real-time LANs and field buses; time services; embedded systems; dynamic mission-critical systems; real-time over the Internet. In each section, we will mention several examples in a summarized form, and then will describe one or two the most relevant in detail. Table 14.1 at the end of the chapter gives a few URL pointers to where information about most of these systems can be found. The table also points to the IETF Request for Comments site, where any RFCs cited can also be found.
