??

The paper you pointed me at maintains it's very much about realtime.

<quote>
This paper argues that OFFSCHED fits to the niche of Multiprocessors
real time systems by partitioning a system to two; the operating system
and OFFSCHED. OFFSHCED is a hybrid system. It is hybrid because it is
both real time and still a regular Linux server. Real time is mainly
achieved by the NMI characteristic and the CPU isolation. It is a hybrid
system because OFFSCHED scheduler interacts with the operating system.
