Visualizing Data in Real-Time (Linux Journal)

In this Linux Journal article, Bruce Johnson explains how real-time data monitors differ from traditional debugging tools. "Historically, real-time data monitors were associated with proprietary, real-time operating systems (RTOSes) and sometimes required the use of special-purpose compilers. Today, however, real-time data monitors are available for applications running under Linux and compiled with standard GNU compilers. Consequently, many developers are beginning to recognize the benefits of real-time data monitors not only in traditional real-time applications but also in a wide variety of embedded and general-purpose applications."
