Abstract :
This paper addresses the use of the Java programming language for real-time applications, giving an overview of its main advantages and current limitations. Java can implement at language level several of the constructs defined by the POSIX1.b standard for real-time applications. However, if Java is to realise its potential in this field, appropriate additions to the language will need to be made, and further work will be necessary
