The LynxOS®-SE real-time operating system allows multiple applications of differing criticality levels to execute on one computer. Each application is provided a partition, or virtual machine, with an incorruptible share of memory and execution time. With LynxOS-SE, each virtual machine runs protected in its own space for uncompromising reliability, enabling easier certification.

Our next course is being planned now. Please contact a Training Coordinator.
