    Presentation on Principles of Distributed Embedded Systems (Embedded Systems - ECE)​​ I -M.TECH I -Semester (AUTONOMOUS-R18) Prepared by, Dr. S. Vinoth Associate Professor UNIT - I REAL TIME ENVIRONMENT 2 UNIT - I REAL-TIME ENVIRONMENT .Real-time computer system requirements .classification of real time systems .simplicity, global time .internal and external clock synchronization .real time model. Real time communication .temporal relations, dependability .power and energy awareness .real time communication .event triggered .rate constrained .time triggered. 3 What is an Embedded system? 4 What is a real-time system? . A real-time system is any information processing system which has to respond to externally generated input stimuli within a finite and specified period –the correctness depends not only on the logical result but also the time it was delivered –failure to respond is as bad as the wrong response! . The computer is a component in a larger engineering system => EMBEDDED COMPUTER SYSTEM 99% of all processors are for the embedded systems market 5 Terminology • Hard real-time — systems where it is absolutely imperative that responses occur within the required deadline. E.g. Flight control systems. • Soft real-time — systems where deadlines are important but which will still function correctly if deadlines are occasionally missed. E.g. Data acquisition system. • Real real-time — systems which are hard real-time and which the response times are very short. E.g. Missile guidance system. • Firm real-time — systems which are soft real-time but in which there is no benefit from late delivery of service. A single system may have all hard, soft and real real-time subsystems In reality many systems will have a cost function associated with missing each deadline.

Secure Meeting Lobby for Locked Conferences This release of the RealPresence Collaboration Server implements a secure meeting lobby option for callers that try to join an active locked conference. When implemented, the RealPresence Collaboration Server does the following: ● Puts a caller who tries to join an active locked conference into the secure meeting lobby, plays the designated IVR message, and displays the designated slide. ● Sends a notification to all conference chairpersons (with AVC endpoints) that one or more callers are waiting in the lobby. The notification identifies the most recent five callers to join the lobby by user or site name and provides a total number of callers waiting in the lobby. Callers stay in the meeting lobby until the chairperson unlocks the conference or until a designated time-duration elapses.

Massachusetts SUBJECT: Utility Control Program To: Scientific and Engineering Computation Staff and Operators From: F. C. Helwig Date: November 22. 1954 Abstract: The S&EC Group has developed a large library of utility tapes which includes input programs, conversion programs. post-mortem programs and equipment checking programs. The more frequently used programs in thislibrar.y have been semi­ permanently recorded either on the nagmetic drums or as numbered blocks on magnetic tape. The selection and use of programs from the librar.f is initiated by a utility control program which has been semi­ pennanently recorded in group 11 of the auxiliary drum.
