subsystem<br />
A scheduling method where equal priority threads take turns running. Each thread<br />
gets a time slice, an equal portion of the processor’s time.<br />
Real-time.<br />
An RT subsystem designated to consume INtime services (booting, configuration, file<br />
system proxy, etc.) provided by a Windows host.<br />
(Real-time kernel) An operating system that provides full RT functionality.<br />
A self-contained collection of software containing an RT kernel, a number of RT<br />
support processes, and the RT portion of zero or more INtime applications.<br />
An RT kernel object type managed by the kernel. Semaphores are used for interthread<br />
synchronization. A counter that takes positive integer values. Threads use<br />
semaphores for synchronization by sending units to and receiving units from the<br />
semaphores.<br />
On a network, a server is any computer which responds to requests from remote<br />
systems. For example, file or print servers allow remote systems to access local disks<br />
or printers.<br />
A subroutine supplied by INtime software to provide a service, such as I/O processing<br />
or memory allocation. A programmatic interface you use to manipulate objects or<br />
control the computer’s actions.<br />
An RT kernel object type managed by the RT kernel. Threads, or threads of execution,<br />
are the active, code-executing objects in a system.<br />
The time required to save the context (data registers, stack and execution pointers) of<br />
one thread, and to start another thread by moving its context into the processor<br />
registers.<br />
An equal portion of the processor’s time.<br />
A Windows subsystem designated to provide INtime services (booting, configuration,<br />
file system proxy, etc.) to one or more RT clients. Not all Windows subsystems are<br />
Windows hosts.<br />
A computer executing a Windows subsystem.<br />
A self-contained collection of software containing Windows, a number of Windows<br />
support processes, and the Windows portion of zero or more INtime applications.<br />
