Linux and RTOS are two distinct concepts.
Linux is the name given to a specific operating system.
An RTOS (Real-Time Operating System) is a specially designed TYPE of Operating System. Where a 'normal' Operating Systems schedule resources/processing time to programs when they are available to the system, whereas an RTOS specializes in allowing programs to run in 'real time', meaning they are able to respond to changes (typically from an external source) as close to instantly as possible.
Typically, you would find an RTOS in situations where the computer has to react instantly to changes, such as an industrial control system or systems that monitor and control the power grid. If the operating system prevented the program from responding in a timely fashion, the program would be worthless.
Real-time Operating Systems are typically very small, optimized systems, whereas a standard OS is very large, feature-laden and has thousands of different features that run at once.
There IS a pared-down version of Linux known as "RTLinux" which falls into the category of an RTOS, but it's not the version of Linux most people are used to seeing. It's very purpose-build, optimized and fast, unusable by anyone but system designers who can work with such an OS.
an RTOS is much better than anormal OS because it is time sensitive, fault tolerable and allow multiprocessing. that are not supported by all OSsA real-time operating system is intended for systems that need to tightly control responsiveness and performance. With an RTOS you can prioritize operations such that the most critical areas of the application get control of the processor exactly when they need it. All other lower priority operations are paused.An RTOS also gives you all of the other advantages of an OS:a consistent coding platforma rich set of APIs to save coding time and errorsprocessor housekeeping functionshardware abstraction
these are techniques to make student to go mad
No difference, really. Unix is an OS (Operating System)
hard real time systems are systems that cant tolerate any delay or if delay happens the whole system will be worthless soft real time systems are systems that can tolerate delay In Vechile we are using Hard RTOS. Soft RTOS using in Live telecasting, Flight updation...
Basically there is not a whole lot of difference between OS and NOS. In common usage OS or Operating System is concerned with one computer. That is the simplified answer. An OS can have NOS features when it interfaces with other computers.

- A RTOS(Real-Time Operating System) has to be multi-tasking and pre-emptible - task priority has to exist - Behaviour of OS should be known - A System of priority inheritance has to exist. - Following parameter should be clearly specified The Interrupt Latency(i.e. time from interrupt arrival to start of execution of ISR) , this has be compatible with application requirements and has to be predictable. RTOS is a real time operating system.The important features are :- - The necessary signalling functions between interrupt routines and taskcodes are handled by RTOS. - It works as an independent system with no internal or external interdependencies. - There are no loop descisions in RTOS - The RTOS can suspend one task code subroutine in the middle order to run another - The time lag is veryless compared to other systems - There are no random time variables, this is good for a direct relationship between instruction and process. - Tasks are simpler to write. - Under most RTOS tasks are simply subroutines.
There's no difference other than what's on them.
OS and Y stands for Opposed Stem and Yoke.

No a RTOS is used only for real time applications and does not have many needed feature of a normal OS.
