William (Bill) Lamie (born 15 July 1961) is an American

software engineer. He is known as the author of the Nucleus, ThreadX and PX5 real-time operating systems (RTOS).[1][2][3]

Early life and education

Lamie was born in Hawaii and grew up in

Bachelor of Science in Computer Science (BSCS) degree from San Diego State University
(SDSU).

Business career

Lamie's area of expertise within the field of Computer Science lies in

US Navy an RTOS called Executive Operating System (EXOS), of which he was a major contributor. After EXOS, he worked for Scientific Atlanta
and then started consulting in the real-time, embedded arena.

Accelerated Technology (now part of Siemens)

In the late 1980s Lamie created the

Nucleus PLUS. Nucleus PLUS offered dynamic object creation/deletion capabilities and a more extensive range of functionality compared to Nucleus RTX. As of 2023, the Nucleus RTOS has been employed in approximately 3 billion devices.[4]
In 1995, he made the decision to depart from Accelerated Technology.

Express Logic (now part of Microsoft)

In 1997, Lamie created a new real-time operating system known as

Azure RTOS.[7]

PX5

In 2022, Lamie left Microsoft and introduced a new RTOS known as the

IEEE standard, enabling code sharing across embedded Linux platforms and reducing the need for additional engineering training. Subsequently, in January 2023, he established a new company named PX5.[8][9][10][11][12][13][14]
