Abstract
A real-time manager for a personal computer manages the operation of real-time tasks while the personal computer also performs other tasks. The real-time manager includes at least one real-time kernel and a task service manager. The real-time kernel activates and controls the real-time tasks. The task service manager allocates time between the real-time tasks and the other tasks, selects the service levels of the real-time tasks in response to the activity levels of the other tasks, and invokes the real-time kernel to activate and control the real-time tasks at the selected service levels.
