Implementation-Aware Embedded Control Systems

In English Most embedded control systems have constrained computationalresources. This makes codesign of the control algorithms and thereal-time scheduling an interesting issue. There is also a strongtrend in the real-time community of moving away from the hardreal-time model. Hence, embedded controllers must be designed sothat they are aware of the resource constraints and timinguncertainty of the implementation platform. This paper discussestemporal determinism, design approaches, and codesign tools for suchsystems.
