This volume contains a selection of papers that focus on the
state-of the-art in real-time scheduling and resource management.
Preliminary versions of these papers were presented at a workshop
on the foundations of real-time computing sponsored by the Office
of Naval Research in October, 1990 in Washington, D.C. A companion
volume by the title Foundations of Real-Time Computing: Fonnal
Specifications and Methods complements this book by addressing many
of the most advanced approaches currently being investigated in the
arena of formal specification and verification of real-time
systems. Together, these two texts provide a comprehensive snapshot
of current insights into the process of designing and building
real-time computing systems on a scientific basis. Many of the
papers in this book take care to define the notion of real-time
system precisely, because it is often easy to misunderstand what is
meant by that term. Different communities of researchers variously
use the term real-time to refer to either very fast computing, or
immediate on-line data acquisition, or deadline-driven computing.
This text is concerned with the very difficult problems of
scheduling tasks and resource management in computer systems whose
performance is inextricably fused with the achievement of
deadlines. Such systems have been enabled for a rapidly increasing
set of diverse end-uses by the unremitting advances in computing
power per constant-dollar cost and per constant-unit-volume of
space. End-use applications of deadline-driven real-time computers
span a spectrum that includes transportation systems, robotics and
manufacturing, aerospace and defense, industrial process control,
and telecommunications."
