Can Java Technologies Serve Hard Real-Time Community?
•There have been two ongoing standardization efforts to address this need:
–The Java Community Process sponsored the Real-Time Specification for Java as JSR-1
•Ben Brosgol, employed by Aonix, was a member of the expert group that crafted this specification
–The J Consortium sponsored development of the “Real-Time Core” specification
•I was the editor for this document as C.T.O. of NewMonics, which was acquired by Aonix in July 2003
•Brian Dobbing and Marc Richard-Foy,  employed by Aonix, were the editors of the J Consortium’s High-Integrity Profile, a subset of the core specification targeted to safety-critical development
