    advantages of real time operating systems


    There are some of the features of using RTOS that is described below

    • Maximum Consumption: – RTOS give maximum consumption of the system and gives us more output while using all the resources and keeping all devices active. There is little or no down time in these systems. So it can be also using by the servers that are hosted to give maximum output of hosting companies.
    • Task Shifting: – There is very little time assigned to shifting tasks in these systems. For example in older systems it takes about 10 micro seconds in shifting one task to another and in latest systems it takes 3 micro seconds.
    • Focus on Application: – These type of operating system focus on applications which are running and usually give less importance to other application residing in waiting stage of life cycle. So less applications or tasks are managed and give exact result on current execution work.

    Real time operating system in embedded system: – Due to small size of programs RTOS can also be used in embedded systems like in transport and others.


    • Error Free: – RTOS is error free that mean it has no chances of error in performing tasks.
    • 24-7 systems: – RTOS can be best used for any applications which run 24 hours and 7 days because it do less task shifting and give maximum output.
    • Real time operating system examples: – There are many real time operating system examples. They are used in vast areas like digital appliances, home video games, wind power systems, intelligent transport system, and robots in industry


    Memory Allocation: – Memory allocation is best managed in these type of systems.
