Hello all, I stumbled across an interesting web site which contains a list of the various types of tasks that VxWorks is used for. From what I can gather, it looks like this list was put together by a guy who does consulting in the RTOS and networking industry. It's kind of a hodge-podge of items, but I thought it might give a good idea of the breadth of applications of VxWorks: VxWorks Usage Survey Results Realtime data acquisition, analysis and storage Aircraft tracking system Hand-held MTDR, OTDR testers Testbeds for various hardware Time synchronization systems Distributed Health monitoring for flight/vehicle systems Automated ground checkout Fault tolerant networks On-board distributed flight control systems Autonomous and Semi-autonomous ground vehicles Check-out system for unusual hardware: Russian rocket engines I/O engine for simulation of the other systems Autoglider - Image processing Spectrograph control Adaptive optics Robotic manipulators Spacecraft to Mars (Pathfinder) X-terminals (i960-based) Remotely operated vehicle at Monterey Bay Aquarium Research Television station automation Telecommunications Electric Power generation monitoring Navy communications system Machine vision Radar Image generatory, symbology image generator Low resolution imaging spectrograph for Keck 10-meter telescope in Hawaii Guide camera for Palomar Observatory 5-meter telescope Telescope control system for Palomar Telerobots for extreme environments (subsea oil platform, nuclear equipment operation) Northern Telecom PBX call processing SUN Network Coprocessor (NFS protocol processing enhancer) Silicon wafer prober Interactive TV Automotive control systems NYC traffic control Jim Privat
