RTOSjärjestelmien
RTOSjärjestelmien, or Real-Time Operating Systems in Finnish, are operating systems designed to serve real-time applications that process data as it arrives, without buffer delays. These systems are typically used in embedded systems where timing is critical, such as in industrial control, automotive systems, medical devices, and aerospace. The primary characteristic of an RTOS is its ability to provide a determined response time for events. This determinism is achieved through features like task scheduling with priorities, interrupt handling, and inter-process communication mechanisms that minimize latency.
Unlike general-purpose operating systems that aim for fairness and throughput, RTOS prioritize predictability and timeliness. Tasks
Common functionalities found in RTOS include task management, memory management, synchronization primitives (like semaphores and mutexes),
