Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Hard real-time operating systems are designed to guarantee strict deadline adherence, requiring highly deterministic behavior with minimal variation in response times. Soft real-time systems prioritize throughput and can tolerate occasional deadline misses, often resulting in higher variability or jitter. Consequently, hard real-time OSs typically exhibit less jitter compared to soft real-time OSs to ensure reliability.
