Contents

The aim of the course is to introduce a special class of time-sensitive computer systems known as real-time systems whose behaviour must satisfy timing-constraints (i.e. deadlines). They are often embedded in safety-critical applications such as modern vehicles, process control, and traffic control etc, and therefore they are also known as embedded systems. The course covers topics:
