This is a generic ROSMOD node package that maps to an actor process and can parse a ROSMOD deployment JSON to dynamically load and spawn component instance executor threads. ROSMOD-Actor has support for running with real-time priority in linux and can set its real-time priority that is defined in the configuration json. It will need to be run with administrative permissions in order to execute at real-time priority.
