Line 1: {{more footnotes\|date=June 2017}} {{primary sources\|date=June 2017}} '''Real -time Java''' is a catch-all term for a combination of technologies that enables programmers to write [[computer program\|program]]s that meet the demands of [[real-time computing\|real-time]] [[systems]] in the [[Java (programming language)\|Java programming language]]. Java's sophisticated [[memory management]], native support for [[~~Thread~~thread (~~computer science~~computing)\|threading]] and concurrency, [[type safety]], and relative simplicity have created a demand for its use in many domains. Its capabilities have been enhanced to support real -time computational needs: * Real -time Java supports a strict [[preemption (computing)\|priority -based]] [[thread (~~computer science~~computing)\|threading]] model, * because Java threads support priorities, Java [[lock (~~software~~computer ~~engineering~~science)\|locking]] mechanisms support [[priority inversion]] avoidance techniques, such as [[priority inheritance]] or the [[priority ceiling protocol]], and * event handling. The initial proposal<ref>{{Cite web\| title=Issues in the Design and Implementation of Real-Time Java \| url=https://www.cs.cornell.edu/courses/cs614/1999sp/papers/rtji.pdf \| archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170809011950/http://www.cs.cornell.edu/courses/cs614/1999sp/papers/rtji.pdf \| archive-date=2017-08-09}}</ref> for an open standard for real-time Java was put forth by Kelvin Nilsen, then serving as a research faculty member at Iowa State University. A follow-on overview paper was published in the ''[[Communications of the ACM]]''.<ref>{{cite journal \| url=https://dl.acm.org/doi/abs/10.1145/276609.276619 \| doi=10.1145/276609.276619 \| title=Adding real-time capabilities to Java \| date=1998 \| last1=Nilsen \| first1=Kelvin \| journal=Communications of the ACM \| volume=41 \| issue=6 \| pages=49–56 }}</ref> The overwhelmingly positive response to these early proposals resulted in a series of meetings hosted by the National Institute of Standards and Technology in an effort to establish an open standard for real-time Java. NIST was ultimately told that they were not the appropriate body to establish standards related to the Java language, as Java was trademarked, and the technologies were owned by Sun Microsystems. Therefore, NIST ended their efforts with publication of consensus requirements.<ref>{{cite journal \| url=https://www.itl.nist.gov/div897/ctg/real-time/rtj-final-draft.pdf \| title=Information Technology Laboratory \| journal=NIST \| date=28 April 2015 }}</ref> that could be considered by future standardization efforts to be hosted by Sun Microsystems. To overcome typical real time difficulties, the [[Java Community Process\|Java Community]] introduced a specification for real-time Java, JSR001. A number of implementations of the resulting ''Real-time specification for Java'' (''RTSJ'') have emerged, including a [[reference implementation (computing)\|reference implementation]] from [[TimeSys\|Timesys]], [[IBM]]'s WebSphere Real Time, [[Sun Microsystems]]'s Java SE Real-Time Systems,<ref>[http://java.sun.com/javase/technologies/realtime/index.jsp Java SE Real-Time Systems]</ref> PTC Perc from [[PTC, Inc.]],<ref>[http://www.ptc.com/developer-tools/perc PTC Perc]</ref> or [[JamaicaVM]] from [[aicas]].▼ ▲~~To overcome typical real time difficulties,~~When the [[Java Community Process\|Java Community]] ~~introduced~~was aformed, the very first effort was the specification for real-time Java, JSR001.

The RTSJ addressed the critical issues by mandating a minimum specification for the threading model (and allowing other models to be plugged into the VM) and by providing for areas of [[memory]] that are not subject to garbage collection, along with threads that are not preemptable by the garbage collector. These areas are instead managed using [[region-based memory management]]. The latest specification, 2.0, supports direct device access and deterministic garbage collection as well.▼ ▲The RTSJ addressed the critical issues by mandating a minimum specification for the threading model (and allowing other models to be plugged into the VM) and by providing for areas of [[memory]] that are not subject to garbage collection, along with threads that are not preemptable by the garbage collector.

RTSJ 1.0 was developed as JSR 1 under the [[Java Community Process]], which approved the new standard in November, 2001. RTSJ 2.0 is being developed under JSR 282.
