Real-time systems need to react to certain input stimuli within given time bounds.
For example, an airbag in a car has to unfold within 300 milliseconds in a crash.
There are many embedded safety-critical applications
and each requires real-time specification techniques.
This text introduces three of these techniques, based on logic and automata: duration calculus,
timed automata, and PLC-automata.
The techniques are brought together to form a seamless design flow, from real-time requirements specified in the
duration calculus; via designs specified by PLC-automata; and into source code for hardware platforms of embedded systems.
The syntax, semantics,
and proof methods of the specification techniques are introduced; their most important properties are established; and real-life examples illustrate their use. Detailed case
studies and exercises conclude each chapter.
Ideal for students of real-time systems or embedded systems, this text will also be of great interest to
researchers and professionals in transportation and automation. |
