One of the main challenges of modern processor
designs is the implementation of scalable and
efficient mechanisms to detect memory access
order violations as a result of out-of-order
execution. Conventional structures performing this
task are complex, inefficient and power-hungry.

MINIX4RT is an extension of the well-known MINIX
Operating System that adds Hard Real-Time services in a new
microkernel but keeping backward compatibility with standard
MINIX versions.
Semaphores are the primitive synchronization and mutual
