Computer-aided support for designing parallel real-time solutions on transputer-based systems
Maarten R. van Steen, T.B. van Dam, Laura A. Vogel · 1994
Exploiting parallelism for industrial real-time applications has not received much attention compared to scientific applications. The available real-time design methods do not adequately address the issue of parallelism, resulting still in a strong need for low-level tools such as debuggers and monitors. In this paper the authors show how problems can be alleviated if an approach is followed that allows for experimentation with designs and implementations. In particular, the authors discuss a development system that integrates design, implementation, execution, and analysis of real-time applications, putting emphasis on exploitation of parallelism.>
