Book Description
The increasing use of computers for real-time control on board spacecrafts has brought with it a greater emphasis on the development methodology used for such systems. By their nature, spacecraft control computers have to operate unattended for long periods and because of the programmatics of space, systems are subject to a long development cycle. As a result, there are two distinct concerns, the first being that the development approach guarantees functional and timing correctness, the second being that problems, particularly those associated with timing, are considered as early as possible in the spacecraft development life cycle.The European Space Agency has, for a number of years, encouraged the development of software using HOOD. It was thus a natural next step to investigate the incorporation of time within the existing HOOD framework. This has proven to be very beneficial and this book describes the approach developed by the authors for handling Hard Real-Time applications. It describes both the background scheduling theory, provides practical examples of its application to real life problems, and demonstrates how it is used in the various phases of the development of Hard Real-Time systems.

Proceedings, Third International Workshop on Object-oriented Real-time Dependable Systems
Author:
Publisher: Institute of Electrical & Electronics Engineers(IEEE)
ISBN: 9780818680465
Category : Computers
Languages : en
Pages : 372
Book Description
Annotation Proceedings of the February 1997 workshop, WORDS'97, include one panel discussion--selecting quality of service in a heterogeneous environment: bandwidth, security, fault tolerance and real-time behavior. The rest of the 45 papers are organized in sessions on models/language, operating systems/architecture, system engineering, system validation and verification, applications, dependability and fault tolerance, and communication. Two early bird sessions covered a variety of topics, including object-based checkpoints in distributed systems and time-bounded cooperative recovery with the distributed real-time application. No index. Annotation copyrighted by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR.

Distributed Computer Control Systems 1997
Author: I.M. MacLeod
Publisher: Pergamon
ISBN:
Category : Computers
Languages : en
Pages : 188
Book Description
It is increasingly accepted that future dependable, real-time digital computer control systems will have distributed architectures. Advantages of distributed computer control systems include the possibility of composing large systems out of pre-tested components with minimal integration effort, their well-defined fault containment properties and their capacity to make effective use of mass-produced silicon chips. The IFAC Workshop series on Distributed Computer Control Systems (DCCS) focuses on design requirements and fundamental principles encountered in such systems and highlights and traces the growth of key concepts at their various stages of development. Theoretical and application-oriented viewpoints receive equal emphasis. These Workshops also provide an excellent forum for the exchange of information on recent technological advances and practices in the distributed computer control field. The 1997 DCCS Workshop was notable for the attention given to practical implementations of ideas that have been under discussion for decades and maintained the high technical standard set by previous Workshops in the series - the policy of concentrating on a specific topic, inviting a number of key authors and of accepting only a limited number of papers paid dividends.

Operating System Principles
Author: Per Brinch Hansen
Publisher: Prentice Hall
ISBN:
Category : Computers
Languages : en
Pages : 396
Book Description
The main theme of the book is that operating systems are not radically different from other programs. The difficulties encountered in the design of efficient, reliable operating systems are the same as those one encounters in the design of other large programs, such as compilers or payroll programs. This book tries to give students of computer science and professional programmers a general understanding of operating systems - the programs that enable people to share computers efficiently.

A Practitioner’s Handbook for Real-Time Analysis
Author: Mark Klein
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 1461527961
Category : Computers
Languages : en
Pages : 701
Book Description
A Practitioner's Handbook for Real-Time Analysis: Guide to Rate Monotonic Analysis for Real-Time Systems contains an invaluable collection of quantitative methods that enable real-time system developers to understand, analyze, and predict the timing behavior of many real-time systems. The methods are practical and theoretically sound, and can be used to assess design tradeoffs and to troubleshoot system timing behavior. This collection of methods is called rate monotonic analysis (RMA). The Handbook includes a framework for describing and categorizing the timing aspects of real-time systems, step-by-step techniques for performing timing analysis, numerous examples of real-time situations to which the techniques can be applied, and two case studies. A Practitioner's Handbook for Real-Time Analysis: Guide to Rate Monotonic Analysis for Real-Time Systems has been created to serve as a definitive source of information and a guide for developers as they analyze and design real-time systems using RMA. The Handbook is an excellent reference, and may be used as the text for advanced courses on the subject.
