Abstract	Real-Time Linux Target (RTLT) is a real-time Linux-based software environment for data acquisition and control that is integrated with MATLAB/SIMULINK. RTLT is a low-cost, user-friendly graphical tool for the design and implementation of digital computer control programs and is the first of its kind available under the Linux operating system. RTLT eliminates redundant hardware by using only one central processing unit (CPU) to perform deterministic real-time control computations as well as general-purpose non-deterministic processing of the Linux kernel and user programs (such as the user-interface), RTLT uses off-the-shelf consumer grade computer hardware, low-cost motion control boards, and a free operating system (OS). The non-proprietary open architecture makes this system more flexible than the current state-of-the-art as it is possible to combine various types of sensors from different vendors as inputs to one control program. The usual learning curve associated with new software tools is virtually eliminated as a result of the complete integration with the design and analysis tools provided by MATLAB/SIMULINK.
