RTMOS (Real-Time Multiprogramming Operating System) is an operating system that supports both real-time computing and multiprogramming. Multiprogramming operating systems are now considered obsolete, having been replaced by multitasking and sometimes the term is being wrongly used for multitasking which adds to the confusion.
Today RTMOS generally means an event-driven real-time operating system.
Famous quotes containing the word operating:
“I love meetings with suits. I live for meetings with suits. I love them because I know they had a really boring week and I walk in there with my orange velvet leggings and drop popcorn in my cleavage and then fish it out and eat it. I like that. I know I’m entertaining them and I know that they know. Obviously, the best meetings are with suits that are intelligent, because then things are operating on a whole other level.”
—Madonna [Madonna Louise Ciccione] (b. 1959)
