A key enabler of LynxOS reliability is its unique Memory Management Unit (MMU) support, residing at the lowest level of the LynxOS kernel. Full MMU support, included in the kernel since 1989, provides the reliability advantages of protected memory and the performance advantages of virtual addresses. Hence, where other real-time operating systems rely on unprotected tasks running in a single flat address space, the LynxOS RTOS enables each task to run protected in its own space for uncompromising reliability.
