#title: RealTime Linux's patent trouble #descr: The Linux kernel is normally not laid out for operation under fixed time limits. In order to turn Linux into a real-time operating system, certain additional programming rules are needed, some of which have been patented. Although the patentee granted a friendly license, this has created insecurity and inhibited commmercial deployment of RT Linux. Fortunately people have meanwhile found a way around the patent. # Local Variables: ; # coding: utf-8 ; # srcfile: /usr/share/emacs/site-lisp/phm/sys/mlht.el ; # mailto: mlhtimport@ffii.org ; # login: phm ; # passwd: YYYYY ; # feature: swpatdir ; # dok: swxai-rtux ; # txtlang: en ; # multlin: t ; # End: ;
