ABOUT THIS DOCUMENT

  nimēṣa Real-Time System Controller has been designed for high performance and compliance with safety standards.
  This manual consists of information and warnings which must be followed,to ensure safe and efficient operation of RTS Controller.
  This document will show you the installation of the RTS Controller hardware and software within. 
  It describes the hardware installation procedure, shows how to configure the system, and explains how to get started with 
  your RTS system using an appropriate example. It also gives you information about connecting external devices to the RTS system and 
  running MATLAB simulation along with it. Knowledge in handling the host PC and the Microsoft Windows operating system is presupposed.

ABOUT RTS:-

Real time system means that the system is subjected to real time, i.e., response should be guaranteed within a specified timing constraint or system should meet the specified deadline. For example: flight control system, real time monitors etc.

“A real-time system is a time-bound system which has well-defined, fixed time constraints and processing is done within the defined constraints or the system or associated systems will fail.”

Types of real time systems based on timing constraints:

  1. Hard real time system – This type of system can never miss its deadline. Missing the deadline may have disastrous consequences. The usefulness of result produced by a hard real time system decreases abruptly and may become negative if tardiness increases. Tardiness means how late a real time system completes its task with respect to its deadline. Example: Flight controller system.

  2. Soft real time system – This type of system can miss its deadline occasionally with some acceptably low probability. Missing the deadline have no disastrous consequences. The usefulness of result produced by a soft real time system decreases gradually with increase in tardiness. Example: Telephone switches. nimēṣa Real-time systems (RTS) have been developed considering the growing demand in the market especially in advanced research in technical universities and developing industrial environments. nimēṣa RTS is considered to be systems whose behaviour depends on the time elapsed, since they start processing data entries until the outputs are known. One of the most important features is that the response time of the system is predictable and limited which makes it one of the special hard real time systems. RTS has three elements:

    • A workload model: It specifies the application supported by system.
    • A resource model: It specifies the resources available to the application.
    • Algorithms: It specifies how the application system will use resources.
