The goal of this paper is to evaluate the Real-Time Specification for Java proposal by performing several case studies. These case studies include an extensible general resource controller; atomic action support infrastructure; unbounded and imprecise computations. They have been used previously by the Ada community to evaluate the efficacy of the Ada concurrency and real-time models. Our results indicate that the Real-Time Specification for Java is expressive enough to cope with the demands of real-time concurrent programming. If it can be implemented efficiently, it will provide an alternative to Ada 95 for programming real-time systems
