D)SCADA

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Real-time operating systems (RTOSs) are designed for systems that require quick and predictable responses to events. These systems typically involve embedded devices such as programmable thermostats, appliance controls, and spacecraft where the operating system needs to respond quickly and predictably to real-time events. Therefore, RTOS is the best choice for this specialized embedded OS. Option B) Voice over Protocol (VoP) refers to voice communication protocols and is not an embedded OS. Option C) Multiple Independent Levels of Security (MILS) is a framework for high-assurance systems and is not specifically related to embedded OS. Option D) Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) is a system of software and hardware elements used to control industrial processes and infrastructure, and not designed as an embedded system.
