Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: C
Real-Time Operating Systems (RTOS) are categorized mainly into two types:
Hard Real-Time System → Strict deadlines must be met; failure can cause system failure (e.g., flight control systems).
Soft Real-Time System → Deadlines are important but not absolutely strict; occasional delays are tolerable (e.g., multimedia systems).
Since both given options (I and II) are valid types of RTOS, the correct answer is Both I and II.
