RTX
The Keil RTX is a royalty-free, deterministic real-time operating system designed for ARM and Cortex-M devices. It allows you to create programs that simultaneously perform multiple functions and helps to create applications which are better structured and more easily maintained. Royalty-free, deterministic RTOS with source code. While it is certainly possible to create real-time programs without an RTOS (by executing one or more functions in a Super-loop), there are numerous scheduling, maintenance, and timing issues that an RTOS like the Keil RTX solves for you. For a more detailed comparison between RTOS and Super-loop, take a look at the advantages of using an RTOS. High-Speed real-time operation with low interrupt latency. Small footprint for resource constrained systems. Unlimited number of tasks each with 254 priority levels. Unlimited number of mailboxes, semaphores, mutex, and timers. Support for multithreading and thread-safe operation.

QNX Neutrino RTOS
Since 1980, thousands of companies have deployed QNX’s real-time operating systems to ensure the ideal combination of performance, security and reliability in mission-critical systems. At the core of QNX technology is the QNX Neutrino® Real-time Operating System (RTOS), a full-featured RTOS enabling next-generation products in every industry where reliability matters, including automotive, medical devices, robotics, transportation, and industrial embedded systems. With the QNX microkernel architecture, a component failure doesn’t bring down other components or the kernel. The failed component is simply shut down and restarted without adversely affecting the rest of the system. The QNX Neutrino RTOS offers the determinism only a real-time OS can provide. Techniques such as adaptive partitioning guarantee critical processes get the cycles they need to complete their tasks on time, while maintaining the performance your complex embedded systems require.
