Real-Time Rate Monotonic Analysis (RMA) is a mathematical method for proving that fixed-priority, periodic real-time tasks will always meet their deadlines under rate monotonic scheduling (RMS). Ron Fredericks Presents RMA at Embedded Systems Conference Developing real-time embedded software is a specialty that requires knowledge of both embedded system design and timing constraints imposed by physical…

I recently found myself spending a lot of time uploading math images copied from screen shots of MathCad output. This problem became even worse when an economist pointed out several areas where I could improve my mathmatical development. Some background notes So I decided it was time to find a simple way to display WordPress…

Ron Fredericks writes: There are three separate views to what defines an effective Board Support Package (BSP). I believe each of these views is correct as independent descriptions of a BSP. But together these views provide insight into the embedded target from equally important perspectives or engineering disciplines. Read this post to learn more about…
