Distributed Real-Time Systems (eBook, PDF)

Theory and Practice

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

This classroom-tested textbook describes the design and implementation of software for distributed real-time systems, using a bottom-up approach. The text addresses common challenges faced in software projects involving real-time systems, and presents a novel method for simply and effectively performing all of the software engineering steps. Each chapter opens with a discussion of the core concepts, together with a review of the relevant methods and available software. This is then followed with a description of the implementation of the concepts in a sample kernel, complete with executable code.

Topics and features:

• Introduces the fundamentals of real-time systems, including real-time architecture and distributed real-time systems
• Presents a focus on the real-time operating system, covering the concepts of task, memory, and input/output management
• Provides a detailed step-by-step construction of a real-time operating system kernel, which is then used to test various higher level implementations
• Describes periodic and aperiodic scheduling, resource management, and distributed scheduling
• Reviews the process of application design from high-level design methods to low-level details of design and implementation
• Surveys real-time programming languages and fault tolerance techniques
• Includes end-of-chapter review questions, extensive C code, numerous examples, and a case study implementing the methods in real-world applications
• Supplies additional material at an associated website

Requiring only a basic background in computer architecture and operating systems, this practically-oriented work is an invaluable study aid for senior undergraduate and graduate-level students of electrical and computer engineering, and computer science. The text will also serve as a useful general reference for researchers interested in real-time systems.

Rezensionen

"This textbook summarizes contemporary knowledge and paradigms of real-time systems in a monographic way. It fits an undergraduate-level course since it starts with basic hardware and low-level real-time system characteristics. ... The structure of the textbook and the building up of the chapter show readers how the theoretical background and practice can be handled in a unified framework." (Bálint Molnár, Computing Reviews, June 18, 2021)
