Jump to PostAndroid is NOT an RTOS. It is Linux with some RT extensions, but is is not hard real time. The QNX OS (used on some Blackberry phones) is a hard RTOS. You can make sure that certain operations and interrupt handlers will meet hard deadlines in terms of system response.

As a researcher you would find papers, web articles and more. But if I take your prior question at https://www.daniweb.com/programming/software-development/threads/508276/what-is-the-scope-of-advanced-embedded-system into the view I have to wonder where you are in your schooling.
Tell me a little more so I can give you a better direction. I'm just someone that happens to have designed, worked on single board systesm as well as system on chip and a few works on Android.
I'm ready when you ask a more specific question.
