dive" into
the -rt patchset at MontaVista's MVision conference.

and Embedded Realtime Myths in (Linux
Journal). Introduces enterprise realtime.
- February 2006 Linux
Realtime Response: Challenges in Making Linux Ready for Real
Time Computing presented
at the First Workshop on Real Time, Interactive and Digital
Media Supercomputing (RIDMS-1), part of the 12th International
Symposium on High-Performance Computer Architecture.
- October 2005 Linux
Realtime Response: The CONFIG_PREEMPT Patch Set presented as a seminar
to the Department of Computer Science at Oregon State
University.
- August 2005 Shrinking
Slices: Looking at Real Time for Linux, PowerPC, and Cell interview by McLaren
Harris.
- July 2005 Realtime
and Linux with
Ingo Molnar. Presentation on a number of ways of getting
realtime features into Linux given at the 2005 Linux Kernel
Summit.
- June 1990 Packet
recovery in high-speed networks using coding and buffer
management with
Nachum Shacham. First analysis of using forward error
correction (FEC) to repair errors due to packet losses that
took into account the added network load due to the FEC. This
technique can reduce the need to wait for retransmissions.
Issues with Hard Realtime Response
- "Show me a hard realtime system, and I will show you a
hammer that will cause it to miss its scheduling deadlines."
- "If at first you don't succeed, get a bigger hammer."
