This course concentrates on the problems encountered when attempting to use computers in real-time (RT) and embedded applications where the computer system must discern the state of the real world and react to it within stringent response-time constraints. Both design methodology and practical implementation techniques for RT systems are presented. Although some hardware will be involved, it should be noted that this course concentrates on real time software.
