Real-Time Systems Engineering and Applications : Engineering and Applications (Softcover reprint of the original 1st ed. 1992)

Real-Time Systems Engineering and Applications is a well-structured collection of chapters pertaining to present and future developments in real-time systems engineering.

After an overview of real-time processing, theoretical foundations are presented.

The book then introduces useful modeling concepts and tools.

This is followed by concentration on the more practical aspects of real-time engineering with a thorough overview of the present state of the art, both in hardware and software, including related concepts in robotics.

Examples are given of novel real-time applications which illustrate the present state of the art.

The book concludes with a focus on future developments, giving direction for new research activities and an educational curriculum covering the subject. This book can be used as a source for academic and industrial researchers as well as a textbook for computing and engineering courses covering the topic of real-time systems engineering.
