Subject: Re: What is "real-time"?
Date: 17 Oct 92 21:35:01 GMT [thread overview]
Message-ID: <6095@ucsbcsl.ucsb.edu> (raw)
Please refer to "Hard real-time systems" by Stankovic and Ramaritham
and published by IEEE. As previously mentioned a real-time system is
a system for which the correctness of result not only depends on the
logical correctness but also on the time at which the results are
produced. This is a very general and vague and correct defenition.
I have a question though for those of you who are academically inclined.
What is real about real-time? What does the word real imply in the
definition of real-time systems? I have wondered about this and I think
that I saw a paper of the same title some time ago. I was wondering if
the real in real-time means that time-axis is treated as a real axis.
Your response will be appreciated.
