Concurrent’s RedHawk Linux is an industry-standard, real-time, low-latency version of the open source Linux operating system for x86 Intel and AMD-based systems. Fully compatible with Red Hat Enterprise Linux, RedHawk provides the added benefit of guaranteed response needed in both hard and soft real-time environments.
RedHawk is ideal for a broad range of deterministic applications such as modeling and simulation, industrial control, financial trading and medical imaging. RedHawk guarantees that a user-level application can respond to an external event in less than 15 microseconds on most platforms. Available for server-class and embedded applications, RedHawk leverages the power of multi-processing, multi-core technology. The RedHawk Linux development environment features Concurrent's NightStar, a powerful, integrated tool suite for debugging and analyzing time-critical Linux applications.
