In this work we present the results of a project devoted to provide programming facilities to develop hard real-time software. We have used MINIX operating system as a tool for our experience. We allow the programmer to define timing constraints for the tasks, letting to the Operating System the work of running these tasks in a timely fashion. In this way, we can improve productivity, security and costs in the system development cycle.
