This article reviews various mechanisms in languages and operating systems for deterministic real-time computing. Open-architecture systems will be defined and their applications in manufacturing will be addressed. Market directions for open-architecture manufacturing systems will be surveyed. Performance issues based on real-time, reliability, and safety will be discussed relating to manufacturing factory automation designed and implemented with component-based, plug-and-play open-architecture.
