The arrival and popularity of multi-core processors has sparked a renewed interest
in the development of parallel programs. Similarly, the availability of low-cost
microprocessors and sensors has generated a great interest in embedded real-time
programs. This book provides students and programmers whose backgrounds are in
traditional sequential programming with the opportunity to expand their capabilities
into parallel, embedded, real-time and distributed computing. It also addresses
the theoretical foundation of real-time scheduling analysis, focusing on theory that
is useful for actual applications. Written by award-winning educators at a level
suitable for undergraduates and beginning graduate students, this book is the first
truly entry-level textbook in the subject. Complete examples allow readers to
understand the context in which a new concept is used, and enable them to build
and run the examples, make changes, and observe the results.
