Language support for the Maruti real-time system
V. Nirkhe, Satish Kumar Tripathi, Ashok K. Agrawala · 1990
Maruti is a testbed for the design of time-driven hard real-time systems. It uses the technique of prescheduling, where the application is scheduled prior to execution and resources required by the application are reserved, in order to ensure that deadlines are met. A description is given of the features of MPL, a language for Maruti. MPL provides constructs for expressing time constraints, precedence relations, and synchronization directly in the programs. The MPL features are designed to facilitate prescheduling.>
