Abstract

The duplex multi-environment real-time (DMERT) operating system is a process-oriented, fault-tolerant operating system designed to provide a versatile software base for telecommunication systems. DMERT provides general fault recovery capabilities, virtual machine layers to meet application needs, a UNIX environment, and I/O interfaces to peripheral devices. This paper gives a detailed description of the DMERT architecture and its capabilities.
