Why not to use a SBC/cheap computer, networked to main EMC machine?
It already comes with ISA bus. FPGA board can be plugged in into it.
Then all the real time functionallity from Linux can be unloaded into it as
well,
according to Paul, it is trivial. Then networking communication doesn't have
to be in hard real time - this is solved as well. I 'm not in the same
league as you, guys, but this appear to
be an easy and a straight forward way.
