RTI = Run Time Infrastructure

As you surely understood from the previous ref.
RTI is a generic term like "CORBA"
at least one RTI implementation is built with CMake
CERTI: https://savannah.nongnu.org/projects/certi

but for the commercial ones mainly Pitch and Mäk I don't know.

Clearly on my TODO list for CERTI but this only solve a part of the problem
because one should be able to built an RTI-based application which is
"implementation agnostic".
So better use something like FindRTI.cmake for building this kind
of application (my opinion though).
