Features: This book provides an in-depth yet accessible explanation of the framework and working principles of real-time systems, comprehensively reflecting the latest technological advancements and research findings in real-time system design. It begins by analyzing the tasks and task scheduling of real-time systems, then delves into the hardware and software design of systems and the use of programming languages, clarifies performance issues in real-time data storage and real-time communication, and finally examines fault-tolerant design, reliability evaluation techniques, and clock synchronization problems. At the end of each chapter, there are suggestions for further reading, exercises, and references. The book is well-structured, with a strong integration of theory and practice, supported by numerous examples and data charts. It is systematic, advanced, and highly practical. It can serve as a textbook for senior undergraduate and graduate students in science and engineering disciplines studying real-time systems, as well as a reference for relevant technical professionals or self-study purposes.
1. Strong theoretical foundation. Many issues are formalized using mathematical language, with relevant formulas, definitions, and theorems provided, along with derivations or proofs. The book compiles the achievements of the two authors from nearly 20 years of teaching and researching real-time systems, as well as many of the latest international research findings in the field.
2. Excellent readability. Each chapter illustrates design methods and performance evaluation methods for real-time systems through numerous examples, analyzing various aspects of many advanced real-time systems. Therefore, the book is not only highly theoretical but also strongly emphasizes the connection between theory and practice, making it easy for readers to follow.
3. Focus on system design and performance evaluation. The entire book is organized around the design and performance evaluation methods of real-time systems, explaining various design and evaluation techniques while also introducing several tools for real-time system design and performance evaluation. Learning these design methods and evaluation tools will be very helpful for researching and developing other real-time systems.
4. Hardware and software integration. Most real-time systems are composed of both hardware and software. The book introduces the working principles, design methods, and performance analysis methods of both hardware and software parts while also providing insights into how to balance software and hardware when designing real-time systems.
