Echtzeitanwendung
Explanation:
Both are OK
If you go to Google and ask for "Realtime-Anwendungen" you get less than 40 hits. For "Echtzeitanwendungen" you get 278 hits. It shows where the preference lies.
Whiel realtime may be a hip word, the German term is more likely to be understood by a larger audience.

Explanation:
Es kommt darauf an, in welchem Zusammenhang. Ich wuerde die englische Version stehen lassen, wenn es sich z.B. um ein Computerprogramm oder Aehnliches handelt, wenn es mehr in den Bereich Industrial Engineering geht, wuerde ich die deutsche Uebersetzung nehmen.
