Real-Time Systems Prof. Kasim Al-Aubidy 4
Course Objectives:
The main objective of this course is to :
 Provide a general introduction to real-time computer control systems .
 Provide examples of real-time systems including functionality and
implementation platforms.
 Study computer control strategies and their implementation techniques.
 Describe and exemplify design parameters for real-time systems including
execution time, implementation, communication & user interface.
 Study a range of methodologies for specifying and designing real time systems.
 Understand hardware and software design and implementation of real-time
systems
 Describe and apply systems engineering methods and techniques in the design
and analysis of real-time systems.
• The course will involve a real-time system design project.

Real-Time Systems Prof. Kasim Al-Aubidy 5


Intended Learning Outcomes:
By the end of this course participants should be able to:
 Clearly differentiate the different issues that arise in designing soft and hard
real-time, concurrent, reactive, safety-critical and embedded systems.
 Explain the various concepts of time that arise in real-time systems.
 Analyze and apply a variety of scheduling mechanisms suitable for soft and
hard real-time systems. Conduct simple performance and schedulability
analysis to demonstrate that a system can successfully meet real-time
constraints.
 Explain the additional problems that arise in developing distributed and
networked real-time systems.
 Describe the design and implementation of systems that support real-time
applications. Justify and critique facilities provided by real-time operating
systems and networks.
 Design, construct and analyze a small, concurrent, reactive, real-time system.
Select and use appropriate engineering techniques, and explain the effect of
your design decisions on the behavior of the system.
