Abstract
A method of supporting real-time computing within a general purpose operating system, by supporting co-resident operating systems. This is a methodology for allowing existing, well-understood real-time systems technology to co-exist with commercial, general purpose operating systems to support applications such as desktop multimedia conferencing. The approach is to partition the central processor and other system resources into two virtual machines, first a machine running a largely unmodified general purpose operating system, and second a machine running a real-time kernel, then to multiplex access to the physical hardware by the virtual machines.
