Core topic Real-time data processing and communications
Real-time OS support not available for new hardware
Whenever analogue and digital worlds are connected, i.e. electronic systems measure or control the physical world, data must be processed and communicated in real time, which means within a defined period of time. New hardware and its processor architectures are usually not supported on the operating system side for tasks in real time. Consequently, these new systems are not per se capable of deriving statements for the next process step of an application through real-time data processing.
We research application-specific implementation of real-time operating systems for new hardware
We are conducting research to find out which real-time operating systems can be implemented in which form for which real-time application and the new hardware required there. To do this, we are looking for high-performance on-board communications paths, efficiently exploit multi-core architectures with real-time support and connect industry-compliant communications stacks to the processing.

“The result of the collaboration is a prototype which serves to log and monitor freight train functions along the whole length and to transmit the data in real time. And not only from that: also in the general cooperation, IMMS has accelerated the progress of the project by thinking along with our requirements and being open-minded in finding solutions that matched the need and the environment.”
