Real-Time Systems: Design Principles for Distributed Embedded
Applications focuses on hard real-time systems, which are computing
systems that must meet their temporal specification in all anticipated load
and fault scenarios. The book stresses the system aspects of distributed
real-time applications, treating the issues of real-time, distribution and
fault-tolerance from an integral point of view. A unique cross-fertilization of
ideas and concepts between the academic and industrial worlds has led to
the inclusion of many insightful examples from industry to explain the
fundamental scientific concepts in a real-world setting. Thus, this book
serves as an excellent text for advanced level courses on real-time systems.
Real-Time Systems: Design Principles for Distributed Embedded
Applications also serves as an invaluable reference for professionals in
industry. The book explains the relevance of the latest scientific insights to
the solution of everyday problems in the design and implementation of
distributed and embedded real-time systems. Thus, as a reference source
the book presents state-of-the-art real-time technology in a coherent,
concise and understandable manner. Because the cost-effectiveness of a
particular method is of major concern in an industrial setting, design
decisions are examined from an economic viewpoint. The recent
appearance of cost-effective powerful system chips has tremendous
influence on the architecture and economics of future distributed system
solutions. The composability of an architecture, i.e., the capability to build
dependable large systems out of pre-tested components with minimal
integration effort, is one of the great challenges for designers of the next
generation of real-time systems. The topic of composability is thus a
recurring theme throughout the book.
Real-Time Systems: Design Principles for Distributed Embedded
Applications is essential reading for anyone involved in the field of real-time
systems.
