RTMOS (Real-Time Multiprogramming Operating System) is an operating system that supports both real-time computing and multiprogramming. Multiprogramming operating systems are now considered obsolete, having been replaced by multitasking and sometimes the term is being wrongly used for multitasking which adds to the confusion.

Today RTMOS generally means an event-driven real-time operating system.
