RTSJ and the JavaOne Slot Car Challenge

Posted by hiheiss on April 07, 2006 at 02:04 PM | Permalink | Comments (0)

I recently conducted an interview with Sun's Greg Bollella that debunks some myths about the difficulties of Real-Time Java and touts the coming Slot Car Challenge at JavaOne, which will give developers a chance to write some RTSJ code and see if can guide a slot car around a track with speed and accuracy -- it should be fun. Greg believes that "The Slot Car Challenge at the 2006 JavaOne Conference will prove that anyone can program with RTSJ,” and insists that programming in Real-Time Java is "more like bicycle science than rocket science". Anyone want to ride the bicycle?
