NASA testuje Linux pro řízení vesmírných lodí

A ze tam microsoft nepretlacil "revolucnu" Vistu? :-)

Space Shuttle control graphics software ported to Linux
Jun. 29, 2005

Real-time animated graphics tools used in control applications for Hong Kong's subway system and NASA's Space Shuttle have been ported to AMD-64 Linux. Kinesix's Sammi application development kit for Linux includes vector graphics interface creation tools, runtimes, and network APIs, and targets aerospace, transportation, and defense.

Linux in Space

There are a number of applications which are being used or developed for the International Space Station.

The first demo was trialled on the STS-80 Shuttle. RACSI was originally developed on Linux Slackware with a 2.0.30 kernel. This was to be used and is used on an IBM ThinkPad. RACSI was programmed in ANSI C. It uses the Moo-Tiff libraries from InfoMagic. A desktop version has also been tried with SuSE 5.2 and kernel 2.0.33. The RACSI interface processes make use of APIs.

The Flight Linux Project officially completed on June 30, 2002. We are looking for other similar flight opportunities to colloborate with or participate in. Please get in touch.

FlightLinux is a concept that uses a real-time variation of the open source Linux Operating System for onboard spacecraft use. Onboard Operating systems have evolved from custom code to applications of embedded real-time operating systems. The time has come to go to open source.

The open source Linux concept, with a modified real-time, embeddable kernel, will address the unique problems of spacecraft onboard computers better.

FlightLinux is the subject of a NASA Advanced Information System Technology (AIST)

Takze ziadne prekvapenie

:)

Trapny pokus...

otazka je zda se do "vyberoveho" rizeni vubec ms tlacil.

oto delat neco pro NASA neni zadny med. Duvod proc porad jeste v raketoplanech pouzivaj stare pocitace je
1) ruseni (pomalejsi jsou mene nachylne)
2) odladeny soft.

NASA uz neni to co byvalo. Za kazdou chvilku jim nekde vypadnou pocitace atd. Na ISS to sice bylo neco ruskeho ale stejne, reklama to neni... i kdyz rusove pak reknou ze nepocitali s takovym ruseni, tj. je to chyba designu.

Ale dovedej si predstavit kdyby nekdo napsal byl tam "Linux" nebo byl tam Windows - to by bylo flamu.... O linuxu ze tam meli dat to a to a ne to a to... a windows obecne.....

pozri si moj skorsi prispevok je na IUS kompoch

Raketoplany maju analogove nie cislicove pocitace-

"Raketoplany maju analogove nie cislicove pocitace"

Ublížil sis hodně? :/ Raketoplány mají pět počítačů IBM řady System/4 Pi. Ty jsou analogové asi tak jako můj notebook.

Ta by na HW s takovymi specifikacemi ani nestekla, i kdyby se jednalo o verzi s Intelem. 512MB RAM nestaci ani na Win XP. Navic v tom neni HD a do 128MB flash se vista urcite nevejde.

vicemeně pravda, ale s jedním musím nesouhlasit:
M$ Widle XP jsou na hardware velice nenáročné, 128MB RAM je pro ně dostatečné, 512 je zbytečně moc.
Měl sem dříve PC(166MHzCPU, 128MBRAM, 120GBHDD) a XP tam běžely svižně (start cca minutu, okno pruzkumníka do 2s, vypalování 52x rychlostí bez problémů).
Dokonce jsem XP instaloval na 64MBRAM, 4GBHDD, 75MHzCPU, ale to uznávám je už málo (start 5 minut, průzkumník cca 10 sekund, ale běžel)

spis bych udelal kompromis, rozdil mezi 128 a 256MB je na XP hooodne znat :)

Protoze vedci pak nechteji rikat "Wow!"

si predstavte neco od microsoftu, by se jim raketoplan sek ve vzduchu a motor by hodil fatal error..cant found library d3dxuni.dll
