In many digital control applications, data acquisition and process control are time-critical actions, assumed to be instantaneous and strictly periodic. However, aspects related t...
We review state-space control models in order to identify timing properties that can favour flexible scheduling of real-time control tasks. First, from the state-space model of a ...
— Due to the real time nature and buddy list presence information of Instant Messaging (IM) systems worms can spread over IM networks rapidly, causing severe damages, however, it...
—Hardware-managed caches introduce large amounts of timing variability, complicating real-time system design. One alternative is a memory system with scratchpad memories which im...
The commonly used task models for real-time systems focus on execution windows expressing earliest start times and deadlines of tasks for feasibility. Within these windows, execut...
