QNX Neutrino realtime operating system (RTOS) by QNX Software Systems Co. (acquired by RIM)



OS/RTOS

Product Description

QNX® products are designed for embedded systems running on ARM platforms, and a host of boards implemented in virtually every type of embedded environment.

QNX Neutrino RTOS

The QNX® Neutrino® RTOS is a full-featured and robust OS that scales down to meet the constrained resource requirements of realtime embedded systems. Its true microkernel design and its modular architecture enable customers to create highly optimized and reliable systems with low total cost of ownership. It offers the embedded industry’s only field-proven, clean strategy for migrating from single-core to multi-core processing.

True microkernel OS

The QNX Neutrino RTOS (realtime operating system) is so reliable because it is a true microkernel operating system.

Under QNX Neutrino, every driver, protocol stack, filesystem and application runs in the safety of memory-protected user space, outside the kernel. Virtually any component can fail — and be automatically restarted — without affecting other components or the kernel. No other commercial RTOS offers this degree of protection.

Multicore migration

The QNX Neutrino RTOS has a field-proven strategy for migrating from single-processor to multi-processor embedded environments. Its unique bound multi-processing (BMP) technology takes the risk out of migration by enabling developers to decide exactly where every process and thread will run.
