REAL TIME OPERATING SYSTEM (RTOS) COMPETENCY LABORATORY

Proprietary Software by Wind River System-VxWorks

Name Description Instruments/Softwares
VxWorks RTOS Siemens needed RTOS to handle tasks that are deterministic, require fast response from the operating system, and are critical to maintaining an adequate level of process security. Using VxWorks instead of building and maintaining our own operating system will allow us to accelerate our time-to-market by four months and reduce our technical costs by 50%. Additionally, this solution will improve the overall performance.
