This is an interesting topic, but I did see very many replies?

I noticed a book on this, and a review/update from the author (an
O'Reilly book).
Sorry I have not made time to go through it all. But the question: is
Linux too fluid to be effective for RT control? 

I have not (yet) read the book or tried hard to look for answers.

There is a company called Building System Design (BSD) Solutions ...
probably NOT what you were looking for! 

... But how did you fare?
